Which chipset does it use?

Mine had a Realtek RTL8188CUS, but beware that they may change the chip without notice. BTW, I could never get mine to work with Linux, even though Linux saw the device and it seemed to work, I could never get it to connect to a wireless access port.

It doesn't say on the box or on the device. I googled it and found 3 answers: rt8188, RT3070 and RT5370. Good luck!

It uses a Realtek chipset. I don't remember which specific one because I'm at work and it's at home, but it is a Realtek.

You not only have to worry about chipset compatibility, you also need be concerned about the BIOS being used. I do not see an immediate problem with the chip set. However, without knowing version and manufacturer of the BIOS, I would have to say, I do not know.

All of our chips are always the latest version, which currently is v2015.0 (v16.50). Thank you for your inquiry.

I went back and checked out the model that I purchased from amazon and did a search for that particular chipset and here is the link http://www.asix.com.tw/download.php?sub=driverdetail&PItemID;=86

None of the documentation I have (or what I can easily find on the website) identifies the chipset.

It will work on any motherboard with a PCIe x4 connector and yes, it will be better than any integrated chipset. This card draws power directly from your PSU (check if you have a floppy connector, I think an adapter is included) so the line power has less noise and therefore, the sound is more "clean".

mine came with a 960gm-gs3 fx, not a very good motherboard to be honest. not many options for upgrading and no extra pciex16 for sli or crossfire

I heard that is what it used. Looking again I can NOT confirm.The information my system indicates is:USB 2.0 To COM Device: Product ID: 0x2303 Vendor ID: 0x067b (Prolific Technology, Inc.) Version: 3.00 Speed: Up to 12 Mb/sec Manufacturer: Prolific Technology Inc.I thought I found the source code for writing a driver for the device and that would have the chipset information but I don't have it handy to confirm that either.I still haven't gotten the driver to work for me, so I'm no help at all.good luckMike L.

Since I do not know which mainboard your system has the best advice is go to www.belarc.com download "advisor" (free) after install open it up and look for your mainboard model; then Google itfor info to see which processors are compatible with your board. this way you can buy with confidence that you are getting the best and fastestchip for your system. Best of luck. Dave

The Asrock AMD 990FX Extreme9 AMD 3-Way CrossFirex is that is the one that is compatible you need a board with the 990fx chipset

for this core uh the msi mother board it is any of the msi 990fx or any mother board with am3+

The chipset is very low power, and mainly used for laptops. mini ITX boards like these use the same SODIMM memory as a laptop, so they can make an ultra low-power desktop which can run fanless (and hence silent).Suppliers will normally mark SODIMMs "laptop memory" but it works fine in a low-power desktop.

Not as far as I know. can use Pcie 1, 2 or 3. Might see performance issues if only 1.0

I am using a MSI GTX660. Works very well with this board and is quiet and has a low power draw.

It depends, do you know who makes your motherboard? What computer model is it?

According to the SYBA website it has a JMB38X chipset which I believe is a product of JMicron. You can read about it here: http://www.sybausa.com/productInfo.php?iid=483, http://www.jmicron.com/Index.html and http://www.jmicron.com/Product_JMB38X.htm.
