That's the computer I'm looking to purchase. I alread have the monitor, keyboard, etc.

 

Now, this isn't about the quality of the computer. The computer I currently have is rocking:

 

- on board sound is shot

- on board ethernet is shot

- 2 PCI slots, one for an ethernet card, and the other for a sound card. One of those slots is shot.

- the hard drive is shot. I'm using a 15 GB back up

- the motherboard is just going insane. sometimes the computer doesn't even boot up properly!

 

My important question is, this new machine has an Intel processor and a Nvidia graphics chip. If I picked up a Radeon card, would it work with the Intel processor?
