Like i've said does my mobo compatible with rx 460? Planning to buy but im not sure if there is compatibility issue?

Yes, your motherboard has the required PCI Express gen2 x16 slot. They are compatible.

Which do you prefer? Xfx, sapphire, his, ppwer color?

Your board has single PCIe x16 slot which is gen 2 (Blue color one) It should run Rx 460. I don't see any incompatibility there.

Personally if I were getting a 460 it would be the MSI Gaming RX: LINK

The MSI card has great reviews, and for the rx 460 the 2GB cards are by far the better choice. The 4GB versions are a waste of money.

Why 4GB is a waste of money? Due to budgetary card consideration or something else please?

@EasyLover: Mostly for the budgetary consideration. There's about a $40 price jump to the 4GB model, and if you're getting into that price range you're almost able to upgrade to a a better card than the rx 460.GTX 960's start at about $170, and the rx 470 starts at around $190.
