Subject: Video Card

I have an HP Pavilion a410n Desktop PC and I want to add a new video
graphics card.  I went to their site and looked at my motherboard and it
looks like it's a 32 pin card that I need.  It says that the motherboard
is - MSI MS-6577 and HP name: Gamila-GL6E.

Where should I look for a 32 pin video card?  Do you think I can get a
decent one for this computer?

According to HP's website
(http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?product=90390&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=e
n&docname=bph07843)
the motherboard you specified has an AGP 4x video card slot available for
graphics. (You also have three PCI slots but you don't want to use them for
video if you don't have to). A quick check on NewEgg.com has an abundant
supply of AGP 4x cards available. Depending on your needs and whether you
have any preference regarding chipset manufacurers (ATI vs. nVidia, gaming
or general purpose) your price will vary from around $25.00 to $240.00.

I hope the links don't "wrap" and they are helpful.
