No. Go to amazon site copy link and past to your browser. Scoll to bottom of page read the tech stuff discriptions. THis card requires a PCIe 2.0 abd a16 lane graphic slot on the mobo. PCI is not 16 lane. Note the "Express" in the nomenclature. my question to you is did you not read the specs or did not understand. Suggest you do more research on line on the difference between varions type of mobo slots and what they do or what they accommodate in a way of cards.

Just check your space for the card. This is a physically imposing card which corrects direct to your power source, so also be sure you have existing power lines off your power supply to enable easy hook up. If you don't have the line in place, you can hook it up of course, it just takes more playing around. But the main issue is simply fitting the card in your case. Good luck. We do love its performance.

No, it's not proper for PCI Express cards. It only fits regular 32-bit PCI slots.

Yes. I actually ended up having to use a card because the onboard was not supported by the low resoultion display that I am using (for an arcade cabinet).

Yes, but be aware of which form factor you're ordering (PCI vs. PCIx). You might have to take the side off your computer to see which ports you have available.

No. It's a PCI slot card. As long as you have a PCI slot, you're good to go.

You would need to check the specs on your specific model to see if it has a replaceable PCI Express Solid State Drive

No motheboard needs a PCI e 2.0 slot. To verify contact nvidia.com/page/support.html

This card is specifically meant to only run with PCI/ PCI RAID based setup. it is not a PCI Express compatible as shown in the Picture.

This model does not have PCI expansion slots. It only comes with PCI Express slots

Your machine will need a pci-e 3.0 port that is free. I dont know about that machine in particular, but if it wqs made in the past five years or so it should have one.

Yes.This card uses pci express 1.0, while that board supports pci express 2.0, but the newer standard is backwards compatible. This card will work just fine, though a card that supports pci express 2.0 may offer better performance.

Yes,with the caveat that you make sure bus (PCI,Ph I Express) matches the card. I am surprised that your computer is running Vista tolerablywith so little RAM,but congratulations.

Probably, as I see your machine has a PCI Express slot. Not sure if size might be an issue though, as my machine is built in a large phantom case.

Not only that, but it will highly boost your system's performance. This card will work with any PCI express slot, but word to the wise, it comes with a weird little cord that looks like trash, that's actually your power cord. You have to plug it into the motherboard AND plug the cord into one of your power supply wires. I spent an hour staring at it, wondering why it wasn't working before i thought to plug that cord in! Hope this helps.

blackhawkms, Most likely, the card you would upgrade with would be PCI-e X16. This system does have a free slot of that type.

No. You'll need to add to the pci express slot. Still a great motherboard. Ive nerve had such a great experience with a motherboard til now. Im going to be using Gigabyte more often now.
