There's no such thing as a stupid question, but they're the easiest to answer.

Will these graphics cards work on my pc?
I have an Acer Aspire SA90 and was wondering if these graphics cards would work/fit into the graphics card slot:

PNY GeForce 9500 512mb pcie Graphics Card
ATI Radeon HD 4670

If they don't or even if they do could you please recommend a decent graphics card for my pc between £40-£60. It will generally only be used for world of warcraft and i want to play it without any lag.

Thank You

Yes, I think they will. The Acer has a PCI Express x1, PCI Express x16 and 2 x PCI slots to fit a gfx card in it.

Those cards are very close to, if not over, the limit of the stock power supply. Consider having another ~50$ ready for a quality power supply (Corsair CX400 is a very good choice) to be able to run those cards.
Radeon 4670 performs better of those two, I would recommend it...

You might be able to get a 9600gt without going over your budget.

And you might also need to get a new power supply to support the gfx card.
