    It depends on your CPU case and mother board.

    Can you give more details of your computer such as specs, etc?

    You should be able to fit the majority of regular cards. But, I can't be sure. Try providing a screen shot. But your main problem is the power supply. I don't think a 220watt power supply will cut for a good gaming card. I think you should try upgrading to 450w at least.

    You can buy for your compuyter a PCI Express x16 graphic card
    Your motherboard have 1 slot for PCI, and 2 for PCI express for Network cards, TV Turners, etc but they cant be used at the same time.
