Answer 1

u can put it if

1. u have enough power supply (5850 will require probably 600 Watts atleast)

2. PCI Express slot

3. enough physical space inside cabinet to fit new graphic card



all above things , check that manually opening ur case / cabinet , if all 3 are ok , then it is ok , otherwise see which on is problem and solve it before buying graphic card

Answer 2

stable subject you probably did not say a ati hd 5970 that's a huge image card and could not extra healthful into your case, ok dell motherboards and case are actually not stable for that nvidia gtx 560 card and the inspiron isn't a huge pc case for that card that's suited to construct a pc with an entire pc case get measurement on that card in the previous finding out to purchase it.signing off

Answer 3

You just added a lot of useless information, just tell us your motherboard.

If you haven't even list what type of graphic card you have we can't guess your motherboard.
