Solution
Hello.
Yes you can support that card.
Your motherboard has a PCIe 2.O Slot , where you will plug that card in.
Your PC should be able to run Battlefeild 3 on Medium High and Call of Duty Ghosts on Medium-ish settings.
Best of Luck !

No, he won't. Don't give people false hopes.

OP - yes, it will technically work as others have said, but you will still struggle to run games with that ancient processor. I'd really try to save up for a new CPU, Motherboard, and RAM as well.
 
you guys are making this hard on the OP. did anybody think that those are his options and unlike your house he doesn't have a tree out back to pick money from..??

as far as the pci-e slot........ I've never had one problem getting any gen 2 or 3 card to work on a gen 1 board.

the card suits his processor well enough for gaming very well at 720p and decently at around 1600/1900 res. with settings turned back.
 


Whether you've had problems or not, the 7000 series does not support PCIe 1.0 or 1.1.
 
I missed the part where it says a 7770 won't work in that 1.0 slot.............. somebody point that out.

All The 7770 have PCIe 3.0, but all pci express slots are backwards compatible. The 7770 would run on the PCIe 1.0 but at a slower bandwidth. but there's so little difference I doubt a human could tell the difference.

i didn't think I would find so much controversy about this

I get that, and I'm sorry if it came across as rude. I just want him to know that this won't let him run all games w/o a problem. I see a lot of people post here with older cpu's that they just bought a new card but cant run games good. They ask why. It's because they have a bottleneck. I just want OP to be aware of that.
 
***but important is that i will upgrade my mobo and processor after six months
till than i should play some of games its my holidays so i need to complete some games


AMD8320+gigabyte mobo
 
The 6670 or 6770 would run just fine.

I'm not familiar with Mercury, but the previous posters may be right on it having 2.0, reading Mercury's spec sheet again it only lists being 1.0 compliant, but doesn't state that's what spec they are using. You may try getting in touch with Mercury to be positive.
 
Swifty, it's not 100% cut and dry like that. In theory, yes, 3.0 is backwards compatible. To cut down on power use, the 7000 series from AMD went with the PCIe 2.1 spec for thermal and energy transfer, making it not compatible with 1.0 or 1.1. The NVIDIA cards didn't do that, which is why NVIDIA gpus, and AMD 6000 and lower GPUs will work just fine on 1.0 and 1.1
