^^ will support. the board have PCIe X 16 slot.

try these:
HD5550 1Gb DDR2/3
HD4650 1Gb DDR2/DDR3

keep the GT220 as last option. its really really slow.

Agreed with Sam. GT 220 is not at all any gaming card. So try to get a HD 5550 GDDR3 version of HD 4670 GDDR3 version if you want some gaming horse power.
