    It should work. I used a pair of GTX-570 video boards in an old Socket 775 Core2-Duo setup so I know the 500 series boards are compatible and you do have one PCI-E x16 slot for the video board.
     
    The card only draws 29 watts so the PSU should be good: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gt-520/specifications

    I would not recommend that card if you plan on playing any games, as it's very low end.
     
    If you're looking to do some light gaming, your best bet for a compatible card that's still manufactured is the Gt 640, which is about 3-4 times more powerful than the 520. Anything higher than that would probably be bottlenecked by your CPU.
