If you have Pci-x slot, and you do, it should work just fine..... sure like mine

Asus lists it as PCI 3.0 Ready. http://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/P9X79_WS/

Here is the spec page, under software OS compatibility it says Windows Sever 2008 R2/ Vista (32/64-bit)http://www.startech.com/Cards-Adapters/USB-3.0/Cards/2-Port-PCI-Express-SuperSpeed-USB-3-Card-Adapter~PEXUSB3S2#dnldsDrivers: http://www.startech.com/Cards-Adapters/USB-3.0/Cards/2-Port-PCI-Express-SuperSpeed-USB-3-Card-Adapter~PEXUSB3S2#dnlds

Vardan, It supports the PCI express but will run at 2.0 not 3.0 like the card is designed for. Another key note is that even though it comes with a two (molex) cable to 6pin cable to support power you need to make sure you have over 600W of power to support if you are running additional drives and fans.

yes it is 2.0 but make sure your pcie 3.0 card is backward compatible not the motherboard. some newer card now a days are backward compatible.

Yes this will work in a PCIe 2.0 slot, all 3.0 cards are backwards compatible.

What I see on the box says it is compatible with 3.0 motherboard, which means it's backward compatible. Should be just fine pci-e 2.0.

Yes, using the AM3 Socket, it will work. It may require a BIOS update, but it will work.

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.

I am not familiar with that motherboard, but it should work with any mobo that has a pci express slot

Only requires PCI-Express 2.0 x1 Slot. But it is compatible with all others. You will NOT see any real speed boost from using a faster slot.

PCIe 2.0 works just fine (I ran Crossfire with this and a Tri-X on an AMD system with PCIe 2.0).

We are possibly dealing with compatibility, I inserted this card in the MSI LGA 1155 Intel mainboard H61M-P31, it will accept both PCI express 3.0 X 16 & PCI express 2.0 X 16 slot. I had no problems.............................

I put a ASUS AMD A85X SATA 6.0 Gb-s 240-Pin DDR3 2400 Motherboards F2A85-M PRO in and it takes both size cards. Looks good too. Using it as a xbmc media box.

If it has a pci-express slot and power/supply has 6 pin pci plug you should be good to go.Make sure you download drivers and AMD applicable performance programs i.e. AMD catalyst. Good Luck.... Rudy

a pci-express 3 will work on a PCI Express 2 or PCI Express 1 slot it's backwards compatible
