I wouldn't post if I wasn't sure. Your motherboard has a PCI-E x16, which is what that video card uses. Does your power supply meet the requirements of the video card?

klk14 · Apr 1, 2011, 09:52 PM

yes it supports the card.

erocker · Apr 1, 2011, 09:52 PM

Okay, you're good then.

You have nothing to worry about, video cards doesn't really need "to be supported" by motherboard. As long as it's PCI-E slot and your PSU can handle it, you will be fine.
