My system specs are:
Intel Core i7 CPU 2.93 GHz 8CPUs
8192 MB RAM
Windows 7 64-bit
My current graphics card is a AMD Radeon 5700 HD series and the total memory is 4095 MB
Display is a 1280x1024 32-bit (60GHz)
So I can run games at a pretty high quality, usually on high or even ultra in some cases but, the frame rate does drop a little when I zoom in on a battle in total war, or look at vast landscape of Skyrim. So I have been looking to buy a new graphics card, but I've never done anything like this before as I've been using the computer out of the box for the past 4 years. So I recently found this and was wondering if it would work with my current build:

Would this card work with my setup? Can I do any better or should I find a smaller card, or one that requires less power. I apologize for my lack in knowledge in this topic but any help would be greatly appreciated!
