What type of Graphic Card?

Hi! New to this forum. Recently purchased a refurbished EMachine. I want to instal a graphic card but I need to know the power supply and type of video slot. Calls to the manufacturer have been a waste of my time. Will this info be in BIOS or can I open cover and be able to tell by lookinfg at mobo?

hi miguel and welcome to MGSupport!

To find out what type of video slot you have we need to know what motherboard you have.
So you need to download everest and it will tell you everything about your computer including motherboard model.

About your power supply you will have to open up the case and have a look

Look at this chart http://fc08.deviantart.com/fs49/i/2009/199/8/4/Computer_hardware_poster_1_7_by_Sonic840.png
click to enlarge it and look at the right column where it says Desktop card slots.
pictures 5 through 8 show PCIe slots, 9 through 12 show AGP slots, 13 and 14 are PCI-x and 15 and 15 are PCI. Each shows the volts needed

 

Thanks Plodr and Dacads. The chart worked like a champ.

Miguel :-D
