Looking to upgrade my e-machine t5254 video card, wanna help?

I'm trying to upgrade my video card to this:

While it is a pci-e x16 card, my machine says it has a pci-e x8 slot.

I have read several articles saying the card would technically fit, but work at x8 speed.

Is this true? Also, if not are there any suggestions for a decent low-price range x8 card?|||You have to mod your PCI-E x8 slot in most cases to fit an x-16 card, and you're correct that it will run on an x8 speed bus. The real problem is finding an x8 card at all, and since rare things are generally expensive, a decent low price x8 card should prove hard to come by.



You should have a standard AGP slot, which would fit this comparable video card:
