Upgrading to new AMD CPU and Board AM3 Socket will my old Video card GeForce 6850 Ultra work in the new system?

All versions of PCI-E x16 are backwards compatible. The devices simply operate at the specification supported by either the card or the slot, whichever is lowest. Like, you can install version 3.x cards in version 2.x and 1.x slots, and vice versa. Nothing to worry, it will be compatible with your build. Just enjoy buddy

I think there were AGP versions of this card.
