Video Card to go with the E8500?

It depends on your motherboard mainly. Do you have an NVidia or AMD chipset? I'd check with the PC's manual (if it came with one) or ask the manufacturer of the motherboard. If you bought a preassembled PC like a Dell or HP or something the manual should give you an idea what to use. Email technical support of the manufacturer to find out if necessary or talk to a PC Technician at a local PC shop if needed. You don't want to buy something that your PC isn't up to handling. You can look online too for recommended video cards for your motherboard/PC. Good luck! Don't buy something until you're confident it's right for you. It depends on your motherboard mainly.

I opted for a GeForce GTX 650Ti because if fit in my Dell case. Note it required a Power supply upgrade.

Thanks, it was missed somewhere that this is to upgrade to the limit of a Gigabyte motherboard.

Yes, pci-e 3.0 is backwards compatible to pci-e 1.0, so a pci-e 3.0 video card will work in any pci-e slot. The only caveat is that it will only negotiate the highest bandwidth that the motherboard will support, so a pci-e 3.0 card will not run at 3.0 bandwidth in a 1.0 slot.

Gigabyte ATI Radeon HD4350 512 MB PCI-Express Video Card GV-R435OC-512I15ft Premium HDMI to DVI CableAfter ordering, I discovered my video card doesn't have hi enough resolution. I have ordered this video card and cable combination. I have a dual core processor 4200 w/2gig mem. so I think it will work. I'm also replacing my dvd burner with a blueray burner, ought to be awesome!

I haven't used the EVGA card, but according to Tom's Hardware: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/370333-33-evga The MSI is suggested.

Thanks Brian.I'll stick with my e260, I can use a 3rd party program to manage my current machine.

Hey Joseph, You can definitely add any video card you wish, including the 7570. Although I have to say the nVIDIA GeForce GT 640 video card it comes with is pretty capable of handling a lot. Probably not any extreme gaming but good enough to handle all programs in Adobe Suite, including Premier Pro. Hope that helps. :)

Yes, if your mother board will work with the E6700. I have a 64 bit windows 7 system and it works great.

Yes. The video card uses a PCIe 3.0 slot. The motherboard has 2 PCIe 3.0 slots

I'm not familiar with that specific mobo, but if it has a PCI- e slot on it, that video card will work and has been a great video card for me

Absulutely, any 780 would work just fine. I myself have 780 gaming series working on it. Basically any card would work with this, even a titan and 780 ti.

It will work. You may not achieve the maximum throughput, due to no PCI-E 3.0 and no SLI. If you plan on getting an additional video card, I would recommend getting a SLI compatible motherboard and a board that supports PCI-E v3.0

Yes it will work. A few things to note though: That motherboard has only one PCI-e 2.0 x16 slot. Make sure you aren't using it for anything else first. Second, the card was designed for PCI-e 3.0. It will work with your 2.0, but you might not get full performance. Though I have heard people say that there isn't much of a difference since video cards aren't powerful enough yet that they truly need 3.0. Finally, don't forget to disable the on-board graphics on your motherboard after installing this one. I believe this is mentioned in the installation guide as well.

It should have enough "umph," but you will need an adaptor cable for the external power to the video card.

(Name Goes Here), If you replace the video card, you would likely use the PCI-E x16 slot that the current video card is in. The chassis will support video cards up to 400mm (15.75 inches) in length. Please note that the proper installation of any component that does not damage the system will *not* void the warranty on the computer. Also, when upgrading the video card, please make certain to take note of the power requirements of the specific card you choose, as they may require you to upgrade the power supply as well.

This EVGA GT 610 has a PCI-Express 2.0 x16 connector. If I remember correctly, your Optiplex 745 has one PCI-Express x16 slot, so this video card should work for you. NOTE: you can only hook up one DVI-D monitor (Dual link, which supports Dell's 30" monitor in the max resolution). The other DVI port can only go up to 1080P.

I have a Radeon 6770 in it currently, and there's room to spare, so I'm sure the 780 will fit. :)
