And find out what type of GPU you have. Pay particular attention to the "Bus Interface" field. This will tell you what type of interface your current GPU is using.



If it is PCI, AGP or PCI-E, then you can upgrade it. If it is blank or "N/A" or something like that, you have on-board graphics in which case...

First, check the "Graphics" tab. This will tell you what you have now.



Then find out what type of Motherboard you have and what type of interface you have available for a GPU upgrade. Go to the "Mainboard" tab, and look to the "Graphics Interface" listing. Same as above, if it says PCI, AGP or PCI-E, you are good for an appropriate upgrade, with a card that uses the same BUS type.|||if your computer is really old then you would have to upgrade other things in order to upgrade the video card. in which case it would be cheaper to buy a new computer. As far as I know, other than that, you should be able to replace it.
