If the green thing is a PCI-E x16 slot, like lordy16 said, then that is where your graphics card will go.

If you want to make your current graphics card into it, make sure it is PCI-E. Most likely you have an AGP card right now.

It isn't an AGP slot, which is the most common for graphics cards, but PCI-E is being used, in a minority. PCI-E is a relatively new technology.

Ummm ... doesn't the onboard bit mean that the graphics processor isn't on a card, but on your motherboard?

I looked a bit for the specifications of that card bit I didn't find any. AFAIK that is an old video card, and PCI-E didn't even exist when it was made.

Call them now on 0870 499 2 499 (I sound like an infomercial :rofl:) and explain your situation, and if it hasn't been shipped yet they should be able to change your order to a cheaper case and you can use some of that money for a new video card.

I want one computer from your uncle, not really though, it's just a thing I say which I thought you'd recognise.
