Same one from Amazon.ca: PNY VCGGT4301XPB GT 430 1024MB DDR3 DVI-I+VGA+HDMI 2.0 PCI-Express Graphics Card

This is where I would order.

I would have a Standard Case, thanks for the explanation

But the version is important. V1 or 1.1 can transfer stuff at 250MB/s - while V2 doubles that rate. This means that the version is a multiplier for the lanes. They have a x32 card - and running at v1.1 would be the same data transfer rate as a x16 card running v2.
How do I see where it is a V2 Card? Can't tell from the link I posted or yours? Or does the 2.0 mean V2.

For XP, 32 bit, is 3gig of RAM the max it can use. I have 2, 1 gig sticks in. I have two empty slots left. The Mobo I have can handle DDR2, 667, Dual Channel.

Thanks again
