Which velocity do I get? My motherboard has:Expansion slots: 1 PCI Express x16, 3 PCI Express x1

After buying the I, I would think about the II, but either way it's fine. The difference _appears_ to mainly be how many drives you can connect up. With the I, you can mount one on-board and a second via cable.

I wouldn't get any of them, you don't get the performance they brag about. Does your motherboard have SATA II or SATA III? If SATA III you don't need this waste of money in your computer.

per apricorn specs: the x1 has data transfer speeds up to 400 MB/sec*..the x2 up tp 550 MB. Depends on your need and whether or not you want to tie up your only x16 slot.Also you need to look at where it will fit in your case. Hope this helps

You'll have to check the manufacturer's specs for your particular PC (or just open the case and take a look). Most PC's have several additional slots for expansion devices (usually 2 to 4 pci-e slots).

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.

If you want PCI Express 3.0, then shop for the Sabertooth 990FX/Gen3 R2.0: "3X PCIe 3.0/2.0 x 16 (dual x16 or x16/x8/x8)" listed in ASUS's Specifications under expansion slots

I was not able to achieve full SATA 3 speeds with mine. I'm not sure what the reason is, but it is possible that other expansion cards on the system are using all available PCI-e lanes. YMMV

Look on the motherboards corner by the PCI slots. The rev should be marked right on the board. It also shows where to look on the unmarked page 3 of the User's manual.

yes, this card plugs into a pci-express x16 slot. the only problem you may run into is the physical size of the card, it may be a tight squeeze on your mobo.

Mine spans over three slots (positions 1 and 4). Or, two empties counting the fact the top card's heatsink takes up a slot. It still seems to have plenty of slack to stretch one more, which I think is as far apart as any motherboard and SLI setup you'd want to run would be.

The mainboard in the computer I bought is an MSI Z77A-G41. It has 1 PCIe 3.0X16 slot, 1 PCIe 2.0X16 slot, 2 PCIe 2.0X1 slots, and 2 PCI slots. Also it has 4 DDR3 DIMM slots for up to 32Gbyte of memory.

As others have said, that processor will run the with this card just fine, but it may be a bit of a bottle neck. The more important question is however, what motherboard do you have? Does it have the required PCI-Express 2.0 x16 expansion slot to accept this card?

You need to check a few things. Look for the model numbers. The one from the link is EXPI9404PT. From a link I checked on below it is an older model card. https://communities.intel.com/thread/40117 You want to get the model numbers for newer versions. I would have to get the model number for your motherboard to compare. I bought one just like the one you are asking about and had to return it for the newer PCI slots. Below is a link that explains the different slots if you're not aware. http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/Everything-You-Need-to-Know-About-the-PCI-Express/190/4 Some of the newer ones are half height. If you order one of these make sure you ask for the slot cover adapter for full height if that is what you have in your computer like I have. Good Luck, David

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.

PCI Express x16 interface so check on ur manual or online to see if you have that slot.

The pcie slot are available depending of your motherboard. However there are 5-6 low profile back panel slots are available to use.

Even you install it is a x 16 slot, it only use up 1 Lan ( 1 x ), so maximum speed is stil PCIe Ver 2.0 1 X ( 5Gbps, about 4XX MB/s )

THE MOTHERBOARD HAS 2 PCI Express x1 slots which supports x1 network cards, SCSI and other cards that comply with PCI express specs & 2 PCI Express 2.0 x16 slots that supports PCI Express x16 2.0 graphic cards that also comply with PCI Express specifications.
