Hi,
I'm just getting into the hardware side of computers and am looking to upgrade my graphics card, so have a few questions about identifying what is compatible and what isn't. How does one know which graphics card will be compatible with their motherboard for instance? I know to check for power and space requirements though. As I understand it the bios is an issue as well, though I have yet to come across specifics. Could someone shed some light on this? Any help very much appreciated, apologies in advance for being such a noob.
Regards,
Fox
