New GPU

I need some help finding a compatible graphics card for my computer. Here's some specs:

I have a Sony Vaio PCV-RS312
1,024 mb of DDR RAM
Pentium4 2.4 ghz Processor
Current graphics card is a 64 mb integrated "Intel 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV Graphics Controller"

The card is integrated so would I pull it out when I put a new one in, or just leave it? My motherboard has 3 PCI slots. Thanks to anyone who can help.

Re: New GPU

For a PCI slot your choices are a little limited. here is one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814102533

And Your present video is a chip on the motherboard you would not remove it but rather disable it the Bios settings.

My System

Re: New GPU

The radeon 9250 is rather old , like 4 or 5 years. I would get a radeon 2400 pro.

Atleast then you'll be able to play more modern games.
