I have a GT220 and am NOT satisfied with the graphics as it is laggy on games like Grand Theft Auto IV on max settings. I am wondering if upgrading to a GT 460 will fit in a GT 220's spot.|||Upgrading the graphics card will certainly help, but GTA IV is a PROCESSOR demanding game. I recommend at least a 3.0ghz Quad core for it ideally. Running it on max settings isn't helping either. Turn everything down to medium apart from texture resolution and set the sliders to no higher than 50.
As for the card itself, yes, the GTX 460 will directly replace the GT220 in the slot you just take the old one out and put the new one in.
This brings on to the next question, what power supply have you got? A GTX 460 requires a decent 450w power supply with 2 PCI 6pin connectors. If you don't have this, i'd either get a new pc setup OR get an ATI Raedon HD 5670, which doesn't require these connectors (like the card you have already), but will be at least twice as fast on pretty much all games.
