Hiya minepro

The Palit Geforce 210 Graphics Card takes its power from the Motherboard, yes your PSU has enough power but do check your Motherboards web site for compatible GPUs.

 

[mine2pro]

okay its an ECS MotherBoard....

 

[mine2pro]

I Couldnt Find The Compatible GPU's List Or Anything... My Motherboard is:ECS 945GCT-M2.It Should Work i Think but i couldnt find the compatible list. 945GCT-M2

 

[mine2pro]

So.. Should It Work Then?

Hi minepro.

I have had a look around and it would seem the answer is no.

This is because the GPU is PCI-e 2.0 and the motherboard is only PCI-e 1.0.

You can open run and type dxdiag that might tell you what PCI-e version you have.

Hope this helps

I Didnt Find it in DxDiag but i googled something and found this:
Current PCIe 2.0 high-end cards are backward compatible with PCIe 1.1. It is just that the fast dual GPU cards could get bottlenecked by a x16 PCIe 1.1 slot.

Yes that is true. If you put a 2.0 card in a slot that is only rev 1.1 you won't get the full benefit.

If you don't mind me asking, what do you use the PC for?
