    It should be, but I don't like the placement on that motherboard. The video card looks like it was made to mount on the left side, and your motherboard (If I am indeed looking at the specs correctly) is on the right hand side.

    That's the problem with most factory premade computers, (Dell, Gateway, Compaq) they are, for the most part, a bitch to upgrade, and more often than not require specific parts that you would only find on their website, thus ensuring they get more of your money when their product becomes obsolete as they planned.

        Well, I'd scour the website for your computer's manufacturer more, see if they have a way for you to order parts/upgrades. Either that, or start saving up to build your own computer
