Would this back plate work with a different branded (such as msi) card if it has a stalk un modded pcb?

It is possible, but I would look at the mount holes of the backplate and the video card in question.

If it fits the slot, it should work fine. I only know of one manufacturer that restricts replacement cards within the bios, and that is HP.

it depends on which motherboard, I have an msi and it works with mine, but it depends on the socket your motherboard has

There should be a smaller plug, usually black, at the back of the motherboard that says PCIE under it. If you have the plug it should work as long as you have an available power plug to fit.

If you're referring to an external/removable metal back plate, then no, it did not come with any. I am not sure about specifics on this card, but I am sure you can Google it as I don't want to give you wrong information especially regarding PCB bending. Sorry if I am not of any help. Hopefully you find out what you need to know

I see no reason why it wouldn't work, except to note the following: This card is a bit of a beast. Well constructed, solid backplane that will support the weight of the card, BUT: make sure your case is big enough for the card to fit (check its listed dimensions) and that it won't butt up against your RAM or CPU cooler: Secondly, the motherboard you specified has on-board video. Unless you have a reason to believe this card will fail (i.e., you plan on doing some sort of insane overclocking, you're using an under-powered power-supply, or you have bad power from the wall and no uninterruptible power supply [aka battery backup]), there's absolutely no need to have on-board video capabilities AND a dedicated GPU. I'd recommend sourcing a different motherboard from the same series, but without the on-board video, and save yourself a few bucks. By the by, I would not recommend going with anything less than a 650w power supply for this build.

Yes. That board reportedly has two PCIe 2.0 slots. This card will work on PCIe 2 or 3.

No it won't. Although the socket matches it can't power the chip. That chip is a higher wattage than this board is designed for. Check out pcpartpicker for boards that will work with that chip.

No. Those are totally different PCB boards, with a different number of chips. These older versions were for use with a back plane and sever power supply.

Yes, that is my understanding. I have used other add-on cards for the same purpose in the past and they have done just what you want to do. However, I was not able to use this particular card because it required a different type of slot on the motherboard that what I have, so I was not able to use or test this one. I could not even return it because by the time I to use it it was beyond the return date. Sorry I could not help more but it should do what you want.Carl

This card should work with any board so long as it has PCIE slots available. Do a quick google search on the visual difference between PCI and PCIE (it's mainly size) and then check the slots in your tower before buying.

Yes...But I had nothing but Bad Luck with this peticular MsI card....Sent it back and bought something better.....

I have this board and this card. It works great, just make sure you have the 4 pin molex pcie connected and 2 separate 6+2 pin connectors. I'm currently using a rosewill lightning 1300 watt to support this card since the rosewill lightning 800 watt wasn't enough

Yep, has backplate, it is a hefty card, very solid, takes 2 or even might interfere with a 3rd slot. I use water cooling so its thin that way. Just be sure to screw the connector end to the case to support it.

Probably, do you have a slot that will take the card. It is back compatible, so if this card is much better than you board it should still work.
1764995
It should depends on the size of your box. It is standard PCIe slot and the card is standard size as well. I think it should be fine. But if your box is much slim than others, then you might need to keep looking

It is a PCI-E 1x Card (not PCI)I think so, but it'd be best to check Zotac's siteNo special power supply needed, it draws it's power from the slot
