How to select a graphics card?
I have a desktop computer whit an integrated graphics card.Now i want to add one.
I have an old one from mu elder PC but it doesn't fit.
What do i have to look so i can find a graphic card compatible and able to fit in my motherboard?
Update:I have all of that about the PSU and about the motherboard (PCI-Express)
But is there something about the number of pins on the card and on the motherboard or all of them are the same?

1. First off check the slot in your motherboard. If it's AGP, don't bother. If it's PCI, don't bother. If it's PCI-Express...do bother.
2. Then check your power supply. If your PSU is under 300W, don't bother. If 300 W, look for a low power card. 400W, you're ok for most but the higher-end.
3. Check your case size. If it's thinner, consider a low-profile card.
4. Then decide your budget.
