Can a GeForce GT 520 be installed on my PC? + Other stuff

Hi everyone!

I have a question. I want to buy a new graphics card for my Windows 7 PC. I'm thinking about getting a GeForce GT 520 or something better or similar within that price range that's above a 9800 GT (which I currently have). Here are my PC specs:

Windows 7 Pro 32 Bit
GigaByte INTEL GA-EG31M-S2 GMA 3100 1333 Motherboard
INTEL CORE 2 DUO E7300 Processor
3 GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 9800GT
HD 7.1 On-board Audio

Can the GT 520 be installed on this?

P.S. Say I wanted to upgrade my processor as well. Can a quad-core or something similar or better work with this PC?

9800GT completely blows GT 520 out of the water. It's a downgrade.

Okay. I had no idea about that. What's newer video cards can work on my PC? What do you reccomend for me?

You can't go much higher without the CPU bottlenecking it.
