It is power supply? I think the power supply is 350 Watts

You should most likely be able to run a 4670 on a 350w power supply. There aren't really enough specs about the power supply on there to tell for sure but it is very likely.

The CPU is running at 3.0 GHz,
I just want to know if I can run games at a decent speed and decent resolution
1024 x 768 and above. Will the give some improvement to play games like PES 2010, street fighter 4 and up-to date games....pls help.

4760 should do well in most games at decent resolution (1440x1050)

Thanks for the info but the question is can my pc take hd 4670 decently cause I only have Pentium 4 at 3 Giga Hz and 2gg of DDR2 Ram, I know that Pentium 4 can bottle neck some of its performance but will it bring improvements to my display?

are you sure you have DDR2 Ram?
never heard DDR2 Raam running on a pentium 4 Cpu....

Yes Iam sure because I have upgraded it from 1 Gig Ram to 2 Gig of Ram using
a 533MHz DDR2 memory slot

Of course, any P4 platform after late 2005-early 2006 will support DDR2.
