Looks okay to me, but are you planning to play games with the on-board video of that motherboard?

If you plan to get a better video card you may need to look at getting a power supply with more wattage (will depend on the video card you decide to get).

I can't see anything in your card. You need to save the list as a public list, and then post the link.

Or just list all the parts here.

EDIT: Apparently others can see it. Guess the problem is on my end then.

yea its a pci slot cardPCI and PCI-Express 16 are not the same thing. Looks like you have a PCI video card...I'm not sure but the on-board video may actually be better than that video card.

Oh, sorry...if it's a PCI-Express video card you should be okay. I thought it was only a PCI video card.
