  • Answer:

    Yes but the GeForce 210 is essentially a useless card, barely any faster than integrated graphics. However, it has a very low power draw so it works with just about any factory power supply of 225 watts or higher. Yours is probably 250 or 300 watts. What are you buying a graphics card for? At the very minimum, you'll want a Radeon HD 5570 or GeForce GT 430, which cost about $50 but are 3X faster than the GeForce 210. The Radeon HD 6570 is even better for just $60. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102934 If you're looking to play games like Skyrim, you'll want at least a Radeon HD 6770 or GeForce GTX 550 Ti. However, you'd need a power supply upgrade to support such a card. For reference, the GeForce 210 is below the bottom card on this chart: http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Zotac/GeForce_GT_520/10.html http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/fastest-graphics-card-radeon-geforce,3067.html

WHATS WITH ALL THE USELESS INFORMATION?????????????????

I couldn't find anything listing the power supply unit (PSU) shipped with it but the system does include a PCI Express x16 port so any newer card would fit in that slot. The case was listed as a mid sized tower so I don't believe you'll need a low profile card (which would have greatly limited your options if it was a slim case). Depending on your PSU, you may be good to install that card, but without knowing the details on that (Watts, connectors), we can't say that the card will work. Oh, the only useful info out of your post was the model number (PQD5002) and the video card. The rest of the information doesn't help in this situation. We're looking to see available slots, case size, and PSU details.

Yes it will work. Double check power requirements on manufactures website.
