thats what I am not sure on as never dealt with a pc this style before

the dell site says agp

its a small form factor computer

low-profile cards are supported (card size =6.35 cm [2.5 inches] high by 16.76 cm [6.6 inches] long)

Hey i have a slimline dell. and i replaced a low profile ATI x1300 with a LP x1650. There was barely any difference. I suggest you get a 7300gt. Oddd i know, but i beleive that will actually do ok. If not, mod the case a bit. Then put in a 7600gt or something. As now i regret not modding my case. A few months after fidning the best possible lp graphics card. I realised that if i just apadted the case a little bit then the 7600gt that my friend had maanged to fit into it, does 2-3 times better. Hey why not buy an x1900 or something .

The 7300GT is slower than the X1650.
