Higher resolution

[Rooster]

Hi,

I have an oldish Dell Dimension 2300 which has onboard graphics supporting up to 1024 x 768. I would like to use a large monitor and increase the resolution. It looks as though many modern cards use PCIE (?) interface. Would there be a probelm in plugging the card into a PCI slot. I was thinking about using the Radeon HD2400 Pro 512MB DDR2 PCIE DVI. Would this work, or can somebody suggest an alternative?

Many thanks, R.

Sparkle's 9400GT should do what you want.

1GB PCI card

Thanks for the quick replies. So we're saying that the 9400GT will fit as it's regular PCI?

If this is your socket

Then yes a PCI 8500GT / 9400GT From Sparle will do what you want
