Video card requires a motherboard with 1 dual-width x16 graphics slot? Is this a regular slot?

Thanks

yes mate,this will actually play some of the latest games on low resolutions

as for light gaming and hd-dvd,s there shouldnt be a problem

however remember the HD2400pro has just a v.g.a and a d.v.i port at the back,but it does have a HDTV connector and is also HDCP Compliant

this is the bottom of the HD radeon range of direct x 10 cards,a better investment would be to spend a few more quid and get a 256MB Asus HD 2600 PRO PCI-E(x16)(http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductIn…

this has a 128bit bus compared to the 64bit in the 2400,and with a core clock of 600mhz and 256mb of gddr2 memory running at 1000mhz this is a much better performer,even when watching dvd,s and hd-dvd

graphic cards are one of the pieces of hardware we buy for our p.c were its best buying better,cheap graphic cards are normally inferior in specifications and only have low specs,making it easy for manufacturers to sell them so cheap

go for at least mid range,remember the graphics denote what you see when you use your p.c,you dont want a rubbish image in front of you every day,spend that little more and enjoy

good luck mate !|||Its like every new game that comes out Your card needs to be updated But if your only playing older games then you should be ok In a few years time the new games that come on the market will be ten times biger But yes that card is ok|||That card is fine for sims 2. You could get away with a cheaper card in fact.|||The HD 2400 is a decend card for the money but there are better cards for a little more. If you like ATI, there is the HD 2600 that should be a little more money (about $30). However, the HD 3850 is about $200 and is far better then both the 2400 and 2600. If you can afford $250-300, you can get the ATI 3870, another good card.



With nVidia, 8800 GT or greater are good cards. However, you will be paying much more for these cards (starting at $300+).



The only thing that I would recommend is that you get a card with 512mb ram. This is the new requirement for video cards as many of the new games require lots of ram on the cards to perform great.

What pci express video card is compatible with my gateway 507gr?

I bought an ATI Radeon X300 LE 256 meg card that is PCI-express x16, which is what my computer is supposedly compatible with, and I upgraded my power supply to 400 watts, 50 above what is recommended for this video card, and it won't work at all.. I'm thinking that this card might not be compatible with this version of the PCI-Express chipset or whatever, but I can't find out anywhere what card would be compatible with it...|||Uh, did you enable the PCI-E port in the BIOS?? It has integrated graphics and won't work until that is disable and the otherone disabled.

Gateways is one of the most non-compatible brands made, but if it has a slot in there it should work.

Is a PCI Express 2.0 video card compatible with a PCI Express x16 slot?

I'm planning to buy a GeForce 8800GT but I just noticed that it is a PCI Express 2.0 card. I have a PCI Express x16 slot and is just wondering if the GeForce 8800 GT will work on my slot.|||YES.

PCI Express x16 2.0 Video Card in a PCI Express x16 slot?

If I buy a PCI Express x16 2.0 video card, will it be compatible with my PCI Express x16 motherboard slot?|||Yes.



If you have a PCI-e 1.0 slot the card will only run at 1.0 speed though.|||it will. the 2.0 spec has a higher bandwidth than a 1.0, however, most graphics cards do not take full advantage of this extra bandwidth so you will only experience a slight performance hit (if any)

Will a video card with PCI Express 2.1 x16 plug into a motherboard that supports PCI Express 2.0 x16 and work?

I've got a motherboard that says how it has PCI Express 2.0 x16 video card slots and a video card that says PCI Express 2.1 x16 on the box. Will I be having a problem with my video card or will it work correctly?|||Yes, you can use ANY pci-e x16 card in ANY pci-e x16 slot. Doesnt matter what revision, they are backwards compatible. and there is no difference in 2.1/2.0, and there is hardly any difference in 2.0/1.0 lol|||It'll work. I have a PCI-E 2.0 card on my PCI-E 1.0 mobo. XD

Is a pci express x16 video card compatible with my pci express slot?

I am planning to upgrade my computers video card because its original is dying out. So i found one online but it is a pci express x16 card and has a ddr2/gddr3 memory interface. And my computers video card slot is a pci express and the original card is a ddr memory interface. So I want to know if the card I am wanting to purchase will work or not with my computer?|||Yap, it should work.
