can this card be put into a pci express x16 slot

I don't believe so. Generally with PCI, stick to the slot it's specifically made for.

Yes. To quote the PCI Express article in Wikipedia: "A PCIe card physically fits (and works correctly) in any slot that is at least as large as it is (e.g., an x1 sized card will work in any sized slot)." My own experience confirms this and I know I've used the card in either x4 or x16 slots previously.

Yes, I am using a PCIe 2.0 x16 slot for it. The card is kind of wide because of the fans, so make sure you have enough room in case.

Hi, Actually you can connect a PCIe card into a slot that has at least the same number of channels it. In other words, a PCIe x1 card slot can operate in a x4, x8 and x16. The only drawback is that the process does not work on a reciprocal basis (eg, you can not connect a PCIe x16 card into a slot x1) due to physical limitations. When you insert a card in a PCIe slot, just use the number of channels that asks the card. According to the manufacturer Available PCI Express based 1.0a compliant slot.

As long as your motherboard has a spare PCI-e x16 slot, and you have physical room in the case for the card, you should be just fine. Make sure the drivers work for XP.

This card works with either a 16 or an 8... as is explained in the description of the card --" PCI Express 2.0 (uses x8 or x16 slot)" so make sure you have a PCI express slot available.

Yes a PCI-E x1 card will work in the PCI-E x16 slot on this motherboard. You will just be utilizing the first 18 pins: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express#Pinout

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.

If the motherboard has a pci express x16 slot then yes, even if it is x8. Consult your motherboard manual

Ok it has 3 PCI Express x1 connectors and a PCI Express x 16 Graphics connector and you can try the 4 2GB it should work because 8GB is the max it can take so yes

It depends on your motherboard slot. It goes into the 16pci express slot. Open your computer and check what slots you have, and search on Google for "pci 16x slot" image.

Yes, it can. It comes with a single PCIe x16 3.0 port. Those cards will require power from the PSU, probably 2x6 pin or even 6+8 pin. I would think most PSUs have this and it should work fine. I have a GTX 970 with 6+8 pin power and it works great.

I believe it is. In the description is says: Designed for the new PCI Express 2.0 bus architecture...while maintaining backwards compatibility with existing PCI Express motherboards. Under system requirements it says: PCI Express-compliant motherboard with one dual-width x16 graphics slot. Looking at the G41M-VS2 specs (I do not see G41-VS2) it has one PCI Express x16 slot. Looking at the pic of the motherboard it appears there is room for this. I have installed two of these so far (but not on the motherboard you have) and they work great. Just a note, there are two different pics on Amazon. The design I received both times matches the one with the boxy plastic around the fan and covering the card.

It should work as long as you have an available PCI express port to install it in

According to MSI website the card runs on the PCI Express x16 3.0 port. This will not work due to the card requiring a newer skit than the one you mentioned.

Replace your motherboard for a Gigabyte motherboard by example. They have PCI-Express x1 ports available in their motherboards. PCI-Express x16 is for video card adapters !

No. it won't even fit physically. PCI-X is not to be confused with PCI_Express (PCI-X1/X2/X4/X16). PCI-X, like PCI, are parallel data buses, PCI-Express is a serial data bus. Different interface.

PCI Express is backwards compatible as long as you have the full sized 8x or 16x slot. This will not work in a 4x or 1x PCI Express slot.
