Vista aero compatible graphics card for Dell Dimension 5150

I have a Dell Dimension 5150 currently running Windows XP SP2 and would like to upgrade to Vista. When I run the upgrade advisor it asks me to upgrade the graphics card
What I'd like to know is what graphics cards should I upgrade to? If you have a 5150 and successfully upgraded to Vista please let me know the hardware make and model
Thanks

Your computer has 1 PCIe x16 slot.

So you can use any Graphics card that has a PCIe x16 configuration.  This is the standard.  Here a few.  Prices vary greatly depending on performance.  You can use any of these for sure!

you can also check ouot some graphics cards in local stores or online & see if they have the "designed for... " or "Works with... " ...Vista logo. most PCI-e cards do.
