You most likely have a PCIE slot, since your mobo has a 9xxx series integrated card.

So yes -- that card will work fine in your desktop.
You will need to make sure that your power supply is at least 400 watts or so in order to use the card.

as long as your motherboard has a PCIe slot it should be fine

You can get another graphics card, you'll just have to disable the integrated one in the bios.

Computer processor and ram will not be a problem long as your mother board support a VGA. Mother board should have a AGP or PCI Express soket to connect a VGA card. If your mother don't support a external card you have to change the Mother board in order to connect a VGA card.
