It is using a PCI slot. so it should be fit...theoretically speaking....
However, due to some PC and motherboard that is too small (not too much room between slot) or an oversize VGA card (taking too much space) it might be not enough...
from what I know, the card size itself is quite small. so as long you have 1 clear PCI slot (nothing occupy the space) it should be fit...or else, just brought your PC there and ask the technician to try to put it. if it is enough, buy it. if not, leave it. simple.

yea it uses an open pci slot not the x16 slot, thats for gpus. an ati x1300 is a weak graphics card anyways.

well if it does not go in the pci-e x16 slot than it should. Since that card is pci then yes as long as you have a pci slot then yes.

lol the PCie x16 is for gp's and physics processors. and the PCie x1 is usualy for a wierless network card. so yes it will go in the PCI slot lol
