yes you can use the video card if your motherboard supports pcie16. make sure it fits, and make sure you got enough power going to it though. as for adding another (x fire) only if you have 2 pcie16 slots. the ratings say you only have a 300w power supply which isn't enough juice.
650 Watt or greater power supply with one 2x3-pin PCIe® power connector and one 2x4-pin PCIe power connector is required (1K Watt with two 2x3-pin and two 2x4-pin connectors for ATI CrossFireX technology in dual mode)
