You didn't include the motherboard which would determine compatibility. But yes it will work... sortof, It will be horribly bottlenecked by that CPU.

yolo Jean · Jul 16, 2015

thank you for answering but how can I exactly find out about the motherboard? either way just knowing that it will fit idc if its bottlenecked

Wolfshadw · Jul 16, 2015

As long as your motherboard has an available PCI-Ex16 slot, it's compatible.

Wolfshadw :

yea but how do I know if my motherboard has an available PCI-Ex16 slot, is there a site I can use to find out?

Ryarwood99 · Jul 16, 2015

yolo Jean :

First, just look at your motherboard and see if it has PCI ports: http://gcctech.org/cec/motherboards/motherboard1_large.gif, if it does it will work... also you may say you don't care but when you spend over $100 and it hardly performs better you'll care, just sayin'.

The graphic below shows examples of various PCI-E slots (PCI-Ex16 and PCI-Ex1) as well as older style PCI (not compatible with PCI-E) slots on a motherboard. Compare the slots shown here to those in your computer. If you need to, post a picture of the inside of your computer or tell us your computer's model number and we can let you know.

No. That doesn't tell us anything. Is it a Dell or Acer? Maybe an HP?

p2-1343w

Ryarwood99 · Jul 16, 2015

When I look up HP and that processor, its a laptop, do you think you could post a picture of your motherboard?

Ryarwood99 · Jul 16, 2015

No! That graphics card won't work!! It's for a desktop, and the computer stats you gave us are for a laptop!!! Have you seen pictures of a 265? It WILL NOT fit into a laptop!

Wolfshadw · Jul 16, 2015

ok. Let try this. There should be a program installed on your computer named, DXDIAG. See if you can find and run that program. It's part of Windows so you shouldn't need to install anything new. Run that program and it's front page should look something like this:

Tell us what it says next to "System Model" on your computer.

that's a link to its pic

yolo Jean · Jul 16, 2015

Wolfshadw :

p2-1343w that's the model number

Wolfshadw · Jul 16, 2015

yolo Jean :

Actually, that is the model number we're looking for.

Unfortunately, that is a laptop processor in a Desktop system.

If you look at the motherboard image in this link, then you can see that you have no PCI-E slots at all and so, you cannot install any graphics card.
