    The card should fit no problem. The power supply on the other hand may not be up to it. The HD 6670 isn't necessarily a power hungry card (average around 67W at load) but if your Dell has the stock 300W power supply in it, it may not work.

    By specs, it comes with a 250W PSU, mine says that, but open the case and look at the PSU. I did and mine said 125W.
