Ok now I don't know crap about computers but this is what I know. 1)My computer has a PCI slot, not a PCI-E. 2)I need a video card that can pixel shade. 3)I would prefer it be above 64 MB. Any help?

ATI Radeon is where your going son..... your gonna need a PCI Bus video card. Pick one they have 256 ones. My desktop had a Radeon 9250 or something like that 256 PCI bus. Also check maybe you have a AGP slot then youll be set. Look on the board or a manual to check.

Simple, Go to BestBuy Read the top left corner of all the Radeon Boxes It wil say PCI Bus thats the one you want on the right top corner it will say 128 or 256 pick the one you want.

Have fun some are expensive but youll enjoy it when you put it in.
