On these Dell 3000 systems there is no pci-e interface, actually there is no agp slot, so the options for a video upgrade would have to be a pci video card.

Elite you work for NVidia...lol......do some research about which is better ATI or Nvidia and choose whichever you think you'd be happiest with. Me personally....I don't use NVidia in my rigs or any I build for customers. But thats by preference.Some links:
