I have a Dell Dimension E510 with a radeonx600 video card. I am looking to buy this:

I know I will need to buy a new psu, I found a 460W one that works with my Dimension E510 desktop. I want to know if this new video card (8800 gts) will fit and work correctly in my tower. Does anyone know? Some of the reviews pointed out that the card is bigger than other cards, so I am not so sure if it will fit and work. Thank you everyone for the help! (If you need anymore specs of my pc, let me know.)

EDIT: just incase this video card wont work with my desktop, what new video cards would you recommend for me? I am looking for something similair to this..something that can be used for directx10 and run games in the future decently(or better) Thanks once again.

I think the Dell Dimension E510's run P4's, if that is the case you should really consider getting a better processor instead of a better graphics card as it will cause a huge bottleneck
Or you could get a lesser DX10 card like a Nvidia 8600 or ATI 2600, but even then it may still cause a bottleneck

What kind of processor do you think i could upgrade to? I am thinking of buying this video card:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814150173
some of my specs:

Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 3.20GHz

RADEON X600 256MB HyperMemory
Memory: 2048 Mb
If i could upgrade my cpu, what would you recommend and what would work well for the future? If i get a better cpu then the video card should work better. Thank you.
