    the HP Pavilion p6120f has a PCI-e x16 expansion slot for a graphics card. the problem you have is the weak psu of only 250W so your opportunities for a dedicated graphics card are pretty limited.

    the best one for your purpose is the ATI HD 4650 that will run with that 250W psu

    You have an integrated graphics card in this machine, meaning that you cannot remove the graphics card. If you paid almost $1000 for this machine as the site says, return it if you can because it's a PIECE OF ****.

    Under expansion on the site it lists nothing. Either they are not listing everything or there are no expansion slots for this machine. Usually the machines that come with integrated graphics do not have the expansion slots to accomadate a good graphics card.

    Next time you look for a PC, check out the most ideal expansion slots. Right now probably the PCI Express x16 2.0 slot. Expansion is important and gamers shouldn't buy integrated graphics.
