GTX 1060 ARMOR 6G OCV1 on DELL XPS 8300

[mele.giovanni]

Hello,

will the MSI GTX 1060 ARMOR 6G OCV1 GPU works on my old DELL XPS 8300?

The mothercard uses legacy bios, no UEFI. Is this card compatible with both modes?

Thx

GM

The card will most likely give you a black screen in-spite of being powered up and the system going into GUI for your OS. I'd say that you pick out an older generation card.
