well I am having a problem finding the system requirements for these online purchased video cards. (the stuff they put on the box). In particular the required power supply.

If you're shopping at newegg on the lower left side of the product page click manufacturer info then click product information page or just go to the manufacturer's web-site and look up the product number.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

I have that same computer from dell.  The dell forums claim you can use any ATX power supply.  Just make sure it has at least 4 SATA connectors.  I'm looking at the OCZ modular ps, I think it is the 600W at Newegg.  I'm considering a 9800GTX+ video card, which has been used successfully in an Inspiron 530, according to the forum.  Good luck and post what you wind up with.  I'm a few months out from an upgrade, so I'll be interested in seeing what you get.
