    they are the bottom of the line for video cards. don't confuse pci/e for your pci as they are 2 different types of slots, like apples & oranges.

    that has onboard video too but also has pci/e16 slot for a videocard. that pc is a refurb not brand new so better off for that money to build your own or have 1 put together for you at local computer store.
