Make sure that you listen for buzzing noises which might mean that the card is pulling too much power. It should work fine with a 300 to 350w power supply but the recommended wattage is 450w.

Provided you have the correct slot open, yes, but I would suggest getting a newer card. This one is great for boosting performance of older computers, but newer ones not so much.

Meanwhile I am not sure about the physical space limitation in your Lenovo system, but XFX does provide driver for Wins 8.1. This link is for a 64bit OS. http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Windows%208.1%20-%2064

I can't think of any reason you'd have any trouble with Windows 8.1 on this motherboard. Well, other than it being windows 8.1. But that's going to be a problem no matter what motherboard you use.

It worked with Windows 8 so I it should work with 8.1 since its far more stable.

I have upgraded my Lenovo C440 from Windows 8.0 to Windows 8.1 without encountering any problems.

I just got a new laptop with windows 8.1 and it works fine thus far. It should work okay.

No idea. I connected to a Windows 8.1 PC. Works wonderfully well. Check Lenovo website.

I have it installed in a Dell Desktop initially running Windows 8 and now running Windows 8.1 as the boot drive.

Of course! All windows 8 computers are eligible for the free 8.1 upgrade... I have 8.1 on my ME400c now

No clue. We installed it into a "custom" case. Alas, doesn't work with Windows 8.1. Supposed to work with 8 but go figure s

I don't know about the 8.1. I used it on a ideapad Lenovo laptop with Win 8.

There would be no reason why it wouldnt. Things like driver issues with your computers hardware would be the only problem with 8.1

Yes you can install Win8.1 onto an SSD using the included discs. I just did this. I recommend getting at least 180GB because the Lenovo DVDs install a bunch of hidden partitions that stuff that eat up a lot of space. Win8.1 plus these hidden partitions use up 45GB alone.

of course not, there is no cd to install windows 8.1, it is saying that is compatible with windows 8.1.

you have to check if your motherboard has the half-mini PCI-e. In windows 8.1 it works and I don't think you'll need special drivers.

I originally installed this with windows 7 and have since upgraded to 8 and then 8.1. It works fine.

It did with Win 7.1 and 8.1 is suppose to be an upgrade so I can't see why it wouldn't.

Yes. Get the kind that goes into the flash drive slot. The driver will be loaded automatically and you should be able to use. See if you can get Windows 8.1 upgrade. You'll love it
