regardless of the motherboard and the graphics card type, installing a graphics card is standard. You need to find the pci express 16 slot on the motherboard. It should be the largest of the pci slots, and if you cant find them, you shouldn't be fiddling around inside your computer!

How would I go about changing the graphics card in my computer?

This is fairly straightforward if you have a desktop. First, you need to do research on your computer's motherboard and find what type of graphics card it can support. Most newer computers can take a PCI-e x16 graphics card, but older computers, circa 2002 are based on the AGP architecture. These two are not compatible, so you must first check that your computer supports the type of graphics card you wish to buy.

Depending on the way your computer is structured inside, you may need to remove other components first before you can remove your old graphics card. Remove the graphics card by gently tugging on its sides, prying it slowly from the socket. Place your new card in the same socket as the old one and return your computer to its original form. When you start up your computer again, your operating system should be able to detect the change in hardware automatically, and either

Will an Asus graphics card be able to crossfire with a msi graphics card?

Problems with Crossfire technology would have to do more with what kind of cards they are, and not what computer they're in. But also, Crossfire is designed so that two graphics cards (GPUs) can work together in one computer. So unless you're planning to somehow open up one computer, take the GPU out and stick it in the other one, I don't think it's relevant.

How do you replace an integrated video card?

An integrated video card is located on the motherboard itself and cannot be replaced. You can add a graphics card to one of the motherboard's slots though. It will then take over and the onboard graphics will not be used. To avoid any conflicts, you should disable the onboard graphics when adding a dedicated graphics card.
