Thats the card I wanna buy... my question is.. how do i know if this badboy is gonna work in my computer?.. whats a PCI-Express x16 :P



if some 1 can talk to me in total computer/video card noob talk..thhaattdd be grreeaaatt..|||different ways of doing it. One would be if you know the model of your computer to go to the manufacturers website it will usually list if it has pci express support. Other is to open the side of your computer and look for a longer connector there should be a sticker saying if its pci express or of the agp format. it will look like this http://www.d-silence.com/articles/graphi…



also that card requires 2 pci express connectors from the power supply and in most cases you will need to upgrade your power supply too.
