need video card

[lachuteBob]

hey!! I have an old Compaq Presario 7479, and i'm looking to find a good and cheap video card for this computer. in the manual that came with this computer its says there's AGP slots but i'm sure there's none even in the spec's. AGP=Brown slots PCI=white slots, is this the right way to find out the differents between both??. I know on my other computer that is much newer the video card is in the brown slot. so before I buy a video card I would like to what card would be good for me, here's the spec's for the computer

its on the Compaq site, the only thing change on this computer is the memory, I have 312 MB SDRAM instead of the 64MB + I running Winxp Pro.

thanks for any help. BOB

since it says that you dont have a agp slot the best bet would be to get a pci version of the radeon 9200 or geforce 5200 there is a good sale going on at compusa now here is the link

The agp slot is the first slot down from the top. Also the agp slot only as 1 break in the slot(meaning 2 sections) and Pci has 2 breakes in the slot(meaning 3 sections). Here are 2 good places you can buy a graphics card from. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/Category/category_tlc.asp?CatId=28 http://www.newegg.com/app/searchPro...op=and&description=graphics+card&InnerCata=48
