You probolly have to replace more then a mobo since compaq are propertiary PC's
Nothing is built to standards, and if you replace the motherboard you will most likely have to replace case and power supply as well.
Someone can doubble check to see if that compaq is propertiary
And no that PCI-E card wont fit, but you can buy really crappy PCI graphics cards like a PCI MX440 that will just get you by. And I doubt graphics are the only thing stopping that compaq from playing, how much ram and what kinda processor?
EDIT: You also need a ram upgrade for games, and your CPU is bare minimal.
Better bite the bullet and get a custom pc \ learn to build your own.
