I have a dell optiplex gx520 running windows xp with an intel video card and it won't run minecraft at all, even on low settings it lags horribly. I get about 5 fps and I only have 1 gb of ram. I'm wondering if upgrading to 2 gb of ram would solve that problem, or if I would also need to buy a new video card (I hear Intel video cards are awful). So if i need to buy a new video card, would this one be compatible with my computer?

I want it because it's cheap and I'm not entirely sure I need a new card. So, would upgrading my ram to 2gb suffice or do I need to buy this video card? And is this video card even compatible with this computer?
