Graphics PCI Express x16 video card
Hi and good afternoon. My Dell now has Windows 10 64 bit OS. My mother board is a G33M02 with 4GB ram. My PSU is a 450 watt 8S<--(I don`t know the manufacture without taking it out). My CPU is Intel Core 2 DUO CPU 7200 @ 2.53 GHz. 64 bit processor. I am currently using the onboard video graphics with a Microsoft generic driver. I would like to install a graphics card that is compatible with my system. Please understand I am not a Gamer but do play a few of the free games for XBOX PC games from the Microsoft store. Some of the games look a little weird. Like a game of flying a plane with a view from the cockpit has a big round blue spot that I can not see thru instead of a see thru propeller. It`s just minor thing but annoying. I have a PCI slot and a PCI X16 slot and one more that is smaller than these. So any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Your power supply is not 450W.
Core 2 Duo is insufficient for most newer games.
Asus Radeon HD6450 would be the recommended upgrade.
That card with wrap around heat sink does not fit in the DT or SFF model DELL whereas the ASUS Silent cards fit in all models with X16 video slot. Meaning it doesnt fit USFF because USFF has Zero Slots. These cards fit and work in every dell I have ever tried.

They fit into every Dell Except USFF.

I`m sorry, When I wrote this post I thought that I had included all my relevant information. The reason my PSU (IS) a 450watt is because I upgraded it back when I was running Windows Vista and 7. I had installed a Asus Nvidia Geforce 6200 512mb graphics card. That card worked fine until I went to Windows 10. There are No drivers for the card that work with 10 , nor could I install them in a Windows Vista-7- or 8 mode that would work. So I removed it altogether. I do thank you for responding with all this information.
