If it won't, what video card would you suggest me to buy, coz I was considering gf 9500gt or 9800gt .. But it uses PCIe 2.0. And if I'm right, my motherboard has somethin' like PCIe x16 / x8.. Thanx in advance,, :)|||You can use any PCI-Express x16 video card in your motherboard and it will be compatible. However, your motherboard's PCI-Express slot has only 1/4 of the bandwidth most modern motherboards slots have. For a low-end graphics card like those you are considering, this won't make any measurable difference. So you won't have any motherboard compatibility issues.
I'm guessing your budget is around $80. At that price point, your best is probably a Radeon HD5670 or a 9800 GTX+.|||Your board supports PCI Express x16(with PCI Express x8 mode). Fortunately the PCI Express specification allows for forward/backward compatibility (wiki link below).|||The best way for you to do this is look up your motherboard specifications online and see if your slots will support your PCIe Graphic cards if not you will not be able to do it. To find what type of motherboard you have is press windows key R type in dxdig go to System Information, System Manufacturer/System Model and just type your motherboard model into google and see if it will support it.|||Nope, doesn't have PCi 2.0 support. If you want any decent graphics cards, i'd seriously consider upgrading the MOBO. Newer boards with PCI 2 support can be picked up quite cheap ^^|||Generally PCI-express cards and slots are backwards compatible. A PCI-E 2.0 card will most always run in a PCI-E 1.0 slot. However, the card will only run up to the throughput of the 1.0 slot.
I suspect that board is at PCI-E 1.0.|||http://www.downloadatoz.com/driver/downl…
