I could find the machine that you have, but it didnt give any details on the MOBO it has, we need to know if it has a PCI-E x16 slot or not - can you take the side off the case and take a picture of the MOBO for us?

 

thanks

thanks for the quick reply, detail on the internal spec are poor, otherwise I dont think many would then buy it!

not sure of the MB but can tell you that there is a spare pci slot on it that wil take a GC.

just not sure what is best to get for slight sim with pending hundreds .. and what power I will need to get to run it?

many thanks again fro you r advice

The Imedia series, though mine is the S1300 and perhaps a slightly earlier model, Belarc only tell you it is a Packard Bell motherboard, in my case the Imedia S1300. I have tried the PB website and found little of use regarding anything about the motherboard. After a search I find Everest may give us more details on the motherboard type so try a download and install of it from here=

Though in my case Everest couldn't identify my motherboard, there may be a chance with yours.

 

I can say though that my motherboard does have the PCI x16 slot, so a good chance yours has one.

 

However, I can say that a higher rated power supply should still fit the case, though it may not mean much, there is certainly room inside mine, though there may be differences in the models that could alter that.
