Sorry I am a noob in Pc. Its GT 440 because the printing was abit off coloured. And I just googled the model.
My apologies.
GT 440 is BIG difference from MX440. Which is why all of us were misled into your 'old' PC from the very beginning. :s22:

lol. After seeing TS's thread, I went to dig out my old beauty:
Hercules%203D%20Prophet%201024%20x%20553_zpst01nsgsv.jpg

Hercules 3D Prophet III Ti-200

But realised that one capacitor is 'swollen' (the top right green one)..

Then I refreshed the thread and saw the above.

Edit: No worries bro, it was a fun exercise.

Actually, for your usage, isn't the intgerated graphics good enough?

Is my motherboard able to support 1080p videos for long?
So far I tried playing YouTube videos are fine. But will it be too stressful? For my motherboard?

1) Integrated GPU is on your chip not your mobo
2) No it isn't anything stressful watching 1080p video
3) Some less demanding games can even be played on integrated GPU

Evidently not. Current cards are all PCI-E. That's an AGP card he was giving the impression that he was trying to replace.

My Bad as I could not read off the label on my spoilt graphic card. That's why caused the confusion.

You can just try using the onboard graphic and see if things run smooth, don't have to guess. :)
