I'm looking to upgrade my brother's video card on his computer, the only problem is I'm not entirely sure what the computer has for available PCI slots. It's still under warrenty so I can't open it without voiding it.
The computer is a http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883113108
I see it says it says (1/1) PCI-E x16 (0/1) PCI-E x1 (2/2) PCI, but I'm not 100% as to what that actually means in terms what video card the computer can support.
The computer is only 2 years old or so, so I'm assuming it can handle something decent, just looking for some guidance and or suggestions.
It's mainly used for gaming (Diablo 3, WoW, Starcraft 2, Star Wars: TOR)
If I bring the computer to BestBuy (where we bought it) they will install any hardware.
