This is what processor I have. It's in a Dell Dimensions 4700.

PROCESSOR, 80547, PENTIUM 4 PRESCOTT DT, 520, SOCKET T, E0, MALE

I need a new video card to support dual moniters and allow me to play a video game or two. Would prefer something I can buy online and something inexpensive.

Please recommend one, I am clueless on these.
 
Your system most likely came with integrated graphics on the motherboard. Is there a graphics expansion slit also on the motherboard? Is it AGP or PCI-e? We need to know this before we can recommend a graphics card.

Also, what do you plan on doing with the computer? Do you plan on gaming, and if so, what games are you interested in playing?

Finally, what price range are we talking about? Do you have a specific $$ amount in mind?
 
What do I tell if I have a AGP or PCI-e slot?

Mostly for web browsing and Photoshop work. I do play Halo here and there.

A fairly cheap one. No real price range.
 
well If its PCIe
then i suggest to Best Bangs for Money :
1 ) nVIDIA Geforce 7600GT For $158 and onwards .

2 ) ATI Radeon X1800XT for $219 and onwards .

Peace & ciao !!!
