this motherboard can adapt video card for gaming

While the board will accept up to 16GB of DDR3 Ram and has an x16 PCI-e slot available, the processor, while being dual core is only about 1.6GHz. I would be looking for a full size board with a faster processor..perhaps high twos to mid threes in GHz. This board would make a good system for streaming video, playing music and general day to day computing in a limited space area.

This motherboard is not meant for gaming. Its more of a HTPC, streaming, and web surfing board

I paired the board with an amd A8 (built in APU) for htpc and light steam gaming. Im able to play dota2 on high, skyrim and batman on med res.

I just looked at your motherboard model and its compatible with your motherboard, how ever, your boards already had a nice integrated video in it.

you should be able to use it as long as the motherboard you have has a PCIe x1 slot but would not be good to use for a video card for gaming.

Most likely. This motherboard will support any PCI-E slotted GPU (ATI or Nvidia). If the video card was made in the last few years it is most likely fine. For an older card, check to make sure it is a PCI-E GPU.

Depends on video card output, some require active adapters on some ports. This is not an active adapter.

Yes that's actually the card I'm using with this board. No issues whatsoever just make sure your power supply can handle it and has available power connectors the card requires.

Im not sure, I bought this motherboard to transform my PC into a gaming PC. I enhanced graphics, sound, power supply and CPU cooling.

Without looking up the exact details of mobo, I'd say if it can support that gpu and cpu, it can support this memory.

Your motherboard would have to have the correct slot for the video card plus the extra power cords the card requires. In addition, the power supply would need to have enough power for the computer and video card.

Hi David, that typically is not an applicable question for mother boards that do not have an integrated graphics card system, as is the case with this one. This motherboard requires a stand-alone video card solution. If you get any decent video card made in the past 6 years, chances are it will have an hdmi and dvi port (for vga, simply use a dvi-to-vga cable converter, which comes with almost every single video card you buy).

The card will be compatible with any motherboard with a PCIe port, which pretty much every motherboard has. Just make sure it's not too big for your case and it'll be fine.

You need a discrete graphics card, as this motherboard doesn't have onboard graphics.

Do a google search for your motherboard specs. See what kind of video card specs it can support. U should always know your hardware spec limits when trying to upgrade a PC tower

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 !

You can use this card in SLi. Be sure your motherboard supports SLi and that you have a power supply capable of running two video cards in SLi along with other components you have connected.

It should support both, assuming you've an adequate PSU. Though personally, I wouldn't use a budget board with an upper end graphics card.
