It supports PCI-Express Video Cards. The motherboard should be red, square shaped, and AMD.

yeah, its red, atleast i think so, the picture when i bought the pc was one side open with a red motherboard.

i never really opened it, because theres seperate parts of the chassi, top part, two sides part.

one sida i cant see in if i take it off, and the other side there is a fan screwed onto it so i cant take that off.

going to open top tomorrow and look into it.

btw heres a picture of something not sure what it is but it says supports > AGP.



does it anyway support pci-express?

Oh sorry, then it supports AGP if thats what you see on your computer. I searched the model number for your motherboard on google and it came up as PCI-E.

If you have an AGP port your computer is probably pretty old.

I'd just look into getting a new one instead of upgrading.

its not that old, couple of months, instead of buying a whole new computer, why not just buy a motherboard with pci ports instead then?

I'm pretty sure it has a PCI slot.The only reason it says AGP is because that is his current GFX card.

Well it's plugged into a AGP port, and it's either AGP or PCI-E

(you probably have PCI ports, just not PCI-E)
