[SOLVED] CAN MY CPU AND MOTHERBOARD HANDLE AMD Radeon HD 6870 1GB GDDR5?

[krazyzix]

So, I have an Asus H110M-F Motherboard, and i5-7400 @ 3.00 ghz and a 500w PSU.
I'm planning to test if HD 6870 is compatible in my pc and can it handle of most of games today? (not the AAA titles seriously)


I think its a wise decision to ask first before doing something, right?
Thankyou!

Cou and mobo can handle it, but idk how the old hd 6870 will handle modern ganes.
Its really really slow, can you go for something else.

Hello, sorry for late reply.
Actually, I am just experimenting something, for research purposes. I'm trynna figure out how old GPU's and recent CPU's will work together. And no, I am not using it for playing modern games, just testing it out.

Anyway, I got the answer I needed, thank you very much for the response!
Good day, sir!

Well any GPU that fits into todays PCIe x16 slot is going to work.

So, HD 6870 will fit in to my MOBO, right?
