GPU Compatibility with my MoBo

[Wafflemonger]

I've recently gotten a GTX 760 for my computer as my other card has gone out. I was planning on upgrading the whole computer at some point as I have an older motherboard. I'm just curious if my motherboard will be compatible with it.

I know it's only a PCI Express 2.0 so it will be bottlenecked a little bit but I'm not sure if I can use my motherboard with it since it's crossfire instead of SLI (Even though I don't plan on using more than one GPU).

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD3-B3

(Sorry if I should have posted in the motherboards forum, wasn't sure where exactly).

It will work just fine. No issues.

It is compatible, do you have enough PSU power? you need 500 watt or better

No issues there. For future instance, you can use any graphics card with your motherboard unless you're wanting to use a completely different technology, AKA: using a graphics card from fifteen years ago before PCI-E was out.

If your mobo has a PCI express 2.0 slot than the card is compatible. There will not be any bottlenecking either as 2.0 offers more than enough bandwidth for most all cards and especially the 760. Using a single NVidia card will work fine on a Crossfire Mobo.
