What information do I have to find out from my computer in order to know that this: http://www.amazon.com/eVGA-e-GeForce-256MB-PCI-Express-256-P2-N549-TR/dp/B000GFHIGS/ref=sr_1_1/103-6934034-3369440?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1182899308&sr=1-1

You need to know if your PC has a x16 PCIe graphics slot. Otherwise, if you have 8X AGP, get the AGP version of that video card.

Matters if your computer can handle PCI-Express 16x or not. If not, then if PCI or AGP. And you can get a faster card for the same price at newegg:

Now for 3d gaming, matters what resolution you are running and what game you're playing:
