You can if you have a pcie slot. But, still not worth it. Unless your only wanting to play older games.

Although I wouldnt mind playing games like oblivion and the all the crazes but I just want some decent hardware , where I can play World of warcraft with everything on high and around 30-50 or 40 fps.

well if you want to run anything new at decent setting you will need a new cpu and ram as well.

basicly a new mob, cpu, ram and hdd will be needed. you could run some older games if you got a 8600gt and got another gig of ram

While everyone else is recommending you get a new PC or upgrade the mobo, ram, cpu, and hdd, if you have a PCI-e 16x slot available, you can install a PCI-e graphics card and get better performance without going broke. Any Radeon HD 3850 card will get you further than where you are at now. I couldn't tell from your screen shot if your system does have an available PCI-e 16x slot. If it does not, then you would definitely need a mobo, ram, cpu, and video card at minimum. When I purchased my Compaq Presario PC, I made sure that it had features I could upgrade to increase performance and it absolutely essential to have a PCI-e 16X slot for video card upgrades.

hmm... PCI-e 16X slot.. well it says

Slot Type: PCI express

Data Bus Width: 32-bit

Thank you for all your help everyone, but unfortunatly im a poor gamer :lol: and the only thing I can currently think of is getting 2x 2GB RAM sticks - and probably a video card, but I dont know which one, so can u folks point me in the right direction :) please.
