Is this going to work?

Would that work on a K7S5A Pro mobo? That 4x/8x stuff about the AGP confuses me.

Feel free to suggest something better, so long as you link me to it.

There are two different interfaces for video cards, well 3 if you count the normal pci slot.

AGP is the older one, which is used in most older motherboards, including yours.

The newer motherboards support pci-E, which is incompatible with agp.

If your mobo has a x4 AGP slot, or a x8 AGP slot, then yes it will work.

Nexy question is whether or not your power supply will be able to feed the beast or not.

And how much power would it need? I can't find that details for that anywhere in the description.

ur looking at 50watts for the gfx card by it self.
use this link to calculator your total minimum wattage

Well, the manual says it has a 4xAGP slot, so I guess that means it'll work.

The calculator gave me a total of 278W. And my PSU seems to have a max of 350W. So I guess that's fine too.

yea, you should be fine. dont strin the PSU too much, so be careful. You may have problems with your rails however, they are probably very weak, and in result wont feed enough voltage to the GPU. So watch out for that.

My rails? What exactly would that mean?

EDIT: Is this the same thing?
