    Will My Graphics Card Work With My Computer?
    « on: July 10, 2012, 04:35:31 PM »
    Hello friends I have a:
    HP Pavilion Slimline s5310f Desktop PC
    AMD Athlon II x2 250 Processor 3.0 GHz
    4 Gigs of Ram & 640 Gb Hard drive
    I have a power supply of 220W & A Motherboard: M2N68-LA (Narra6)

    Anyway I am looking in to buying CIV V But my graphics card is outdated. I want to buy the XFX - Radeon HD 6570 1GB DDR3 PCI Express Graphics Card. BUt I don't know if my system will support it any help? I have Windows 7 by the way.

    Either of those choices may need to be what's known as a low frofile card...depending on how much space there is...
    You will have to do some measuring after looking up the card specs.

    P>S> You will need a new PSU as well.
