I don't know if it is compatible for mine?
I suck at hardware stuff, all I know is what part is what and where they all go.

I am running on an ATI Raedon HD 3450 graphics card.

Is this compatible and how much will it improve stuff?

No it is not. You can download the latest drivers for your card here.

Radeon updates ain't compatible with GeForce updates I think.. ATI has Catalyst Control Center for their Radeon cards, which is something like an update afaik. Correct me if I'm wrong.
