Graphics card - WHERE?

[lazyfatarticle]

Where do i put my new graphics card?

Left finger or right finger?

It seems pretty obvious to put it where it says dual graphics, but i dont want to mess things up

Left. Blue
You can try, its only slot fits

The part where it says "Dual Graphics" is actually the RAM, and not directly related to the graphics card. I guess they just wrote that there because it was an empty space where they could write things. : D

So yes, the left hand would be where it goes. You'll also likely need to remove a metal slot cover behind it on the back of the case, so that the video ports on the card are accessible from outside of it. You'll need to plug your monitor into the ports on the graphics card, rather than those on the motherboard to make use of it.

This might be helpful to you, original poster, and anyone new who might read this. Motherboards are made to a certain standard. ATX or micro ATX, or ITX, and so on.

The significance is that the graphics slot will be in the same place on all motherboards of that standard. In your photo you'll notice there are three slots, one blue two white, on the left side. On the right side you have those thin sticks in those thin slots.

If you were to look at your videocard and then at the two sets of slots, do you really imagine the videocard would fit anywhere on the right? You can double check this by picking random motherboards at Newegg or somewhere and seeing where the videocard slot is. You'll notice they are always in the same general area on all motherboards of that type.
