I want to upgrade my computer's Video card and RAM (information inside)?

What should I be looking for when it comes to something that has a good price ($40-$90) and something that allows me to have a better gaming experience? (video card)



I like this graphics card, but will it be compatible with my computer?

Here is my computer info:



Monitor= Hp pavilion f1703

Computer Tower= Hp pavilion a847c



Pentium (R) 4 processor = CPU 3.20GHz

Ram= 504MB

Type of connection= PCI bus 0, device 2, function 0|||heres your comps specs page

id say upgrade by adding at least another gig of ram yours uses ddr 400/pc3200 you could use a lower ram like ddr266,or 333, but it will cost more



and no that video card will not,, your board only has pci slots,, no agp or pci express (which is what your card is) ,, to upgrade youd have to use a pci video card,



heres the motherboard that your system has and its specs

and I recommend that you should have a nvidia video card because there designed for games!|||You need an entirely new PC. That card is PCI-Express 2.0 which needs a slot like the one in the link below. Which I'm fairly sure your computer does not have.



You definitely need more ram and a better card, though.



Gaming and low budget do not go hand in hand. You have to spend at least a mid-range ($600 if you get just a new motherboard, ram, processor and video card) amount of money to be able to play relatively newer games.|||No. The card you want to buy is PCIe.. your computer only has three PCI slots. PCIe is not backwards compatible with PCIe, so it won't work.|||if yr motherboard supports thn only.
