current card GT520? well if it works then likely yes!I cant imagine any reason it would not be compatible.If your asking about the 640 instead of 520, it should be. It is a simple card.However it is old and you might want to go a little higher if you gots bucks. If not, the 640 is a good card but not high end.

Hello Kathleen,Please let me know your motherboard brand and I will help you.I am using EVGA GT520 1GB Video Card with the same processor, but We need know is the motherboard has the slot for this card. Let me know the model of your computer or ask where you bought if your PC has a free slot ready for this card.If anything more, please let me know itHave good night.

If the power supply has a 20amp rail then it should be OK. I had to change psu to a higher amp for the 4gb card.

Hi, no. Your power supply has to have 2 six pin PCI connectors. http://xfxforce.com/en-gb/Products/Graphics-Cards/AMD/AMD-Radeon-HD-7000/AMD-Radeon-HD-7870.aspx

Yes. That motheboard is an AM3 which supports the Phenom II. The processor is an AM3 processor.

It should I was running it with a Phenom II x4 965 BE, R9 270 GPU, and a MSI A970-G43 mobo.

Yes anything over 300W is more than enough, however i wouldn't chance it. This is probably the most unstable video card on the market. This model is notorious for blue screens after installation. Buyer Beware.

I recommend getting at least a 400 watt power supply. By that I mean, it will work, but it will kill your power supply after a while. If you don't want to upgrade your power supply I recommend this graphics card: EVGA GeForce GT 640 2048MB GDDR3 Dual DVI, mHDMI Graphics Cards 02G-P4-2643-KR

Yes, you can. Any video card is compatible with this processor. If you are installing both items new, just remember to change your Bios Graphics Settings to PCI, before first boot.

We are unable to answer compatibility question for certain PC model. If your PC has PCI express x 16 slot and it is PCIE 2.0 standard or higher compliant with minimum 400 watt power supply then it should work. The system you have seems like a slim tower, since this card comes with a pair of low profile bracket, it can be shortened to fit almost all slim tower system. Thanks Copystars Support

if your power supply is a 500W or above you will be able to power the card. Provided the rest of your system isn't low end or super dirt old, you shouldn't be bottlenecked or have to worry about hardware compatability.If you mean software wise like drivers, well Nvidia cards like to play well with eachother so having an Nvidia card in there and swapping to another Nvidia should be fine if you do not wish to reload your OS.

Yes. The latest drivers for the card, found on AMD's website, have an option to download a compatible driver for your OS.

I believe you could use this video card on the above computer with following exceptions. You need to have a power supply that exceeds 300W. Most computer do not come with a 300W+ power supply. So that most likely would be your failure with this card. This is a very stable and good card, I highly recommend to anyone. Video is video - no matter what your cpu and memory status. Low end computers might run slower than the video card, but should work. Hope this helps.

If you have the exact same one, they will definitely be compatible. Two issues to keep in mind: 1) Make sure you have enough RAM slots; 2) Because the built-in heat sink is kind of bulky, make sure there is enough physical space to plug in both cards. Otherwise, you should be good to go.

It should be but 460w PSU is cutting it close. Couple of things to consider:1: it's a big, thick and long card, make sure it will fit in your case.2: it takes 2 PCIx power connectors from your PSU. There are PCIx to molex adapters if needed. Most cards actually ship with them but just know this.3: make sure you have an available PCIx X16 slot available. This thing takes up 2 slots on your motherboard. Again, just know this and make sure you have the space.Other than that it is a great video card, even by today's standards (10-2014)

It should work, if anything, at least make sure your PSU is reliable. I had this card running with a 65W CPU on a 300W PSU

Happy Xmas to you, welll as far as how I have it set ... Im using a Mid case like you with a 650 Power Supply in a 970A-446 Military Class motherboard with 8gb ddr3 Vengange Gaming RAM. This is Over Clock from 3.5 to 4.5 Mghz [AMD Black Edition] and is working ok. The VIDEO card is short factor so it should fit you well. Make sure you have a 550Watts or higher power supply just in case, also make sure you flash your mother board with the latest BIOS update prior to install the card.

Yes this video card should work fine however you have to make the sure the rest of your build matches it. I'd recommend a quad core CPU and at least 4-6 gb of ram. Make sure your power supply can handle the load of an extra video card. Just google search power supply calculator and use extreme power calculator that comes up. Input your system info and it should give you a minimum power supply and a recommended one. I also caution that while this would run efficiently now, as wow continues to expand and be updated the video card will become obsolete faster because it still uses ddr3 gaming ram rather than the gddr5 gaming ram. I'd recommend finding a video card that uses at least 2gb of gddr5 ram. An amd 7800 series or nvidia 700 series or higher with the gddr5 ram.
