According to the XPS 400 system manual (available at https://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/xps400/om/WD741A03.pdf) this system has PCI-E slots, so yes, that video card should be a great match.

Please ensure that you have an adequate power supply for this card. The 8800 series is power hungry, and you do not want to be crashing after installing the card.
