YES. Any motherboard chipset having a vacant PCI Express x16 slot will work with the GPU. Just make sure you update the BIOS, if need be. The last BIOS is pretty old on your motherboard, dated 2013/7/26.

List your full PC specs, including the make and model number of your PSU. Which GPU are you currently using ?

Intel pentium g2020
H61m vs3
Atx 500w
Corsair 1x2gb

Now i have a new problem
My pc wont start
 

What's the brand/model of this PSU ? Is it a generic PSU model, or some high quality power supply ? Because for the RX 570 we would be needing a decent PSU. Which GPU do you currently have ??

Atop atx 500wh
And
Unfortunately...I bought the gigabyte rx 550 single fan..
So..what is the problem?

RISK factor is the issue here. I honestly don't think that's a very high quality PSU. Looks like some generic model to me, IMO. Please don't use this to power up any gaming GPU. Grab some other high-quality PSU...I've never heard of ATOP PSUs though.

At least in my opinion
, that's not a very good PSU.

PSU is the last component you might want to cheap out on, or skimp. Try to get some other high quality PSU, IF possible. Power supplies are an imperative part of your system that should not be taken lightly. Throwing in a budget PSU could result in poor power efficiency or even a wrecked system. Don't SKIMP on the PSU,, since this is the MOST important PC component. I can't stress this enough.

Btw, this PSU list is NOT exhaustive, nor 100% accurate though, but at least it gives us some idea about the brand reputation, in the hierarchy list..BUT, make a note though. Despite Seasonic, XFX listed under the "arguably best brands" category by me, they have had pretty poor quality units as well. like the XT series, and SeaSonic S12II Series. There are more exceptions though...

Pretty much all PSU manufacturers sell good and bad power supplies.

PSU brands to never buy from 😱

  • Diablotek
  • Apevia
  • Coolmax
  • Logisys
  • Sparkle
  • Raidmax
  • Zalman
  • Diablotek
  • Xilence
  • Tacens
  • iBALL
  • Zebronics.
  • Logisys.

  • Average PSU brands (Not deadly but I would avoid them)
  • NZXT
  • Enermax
  • Cougar
  • Bitfenix
Good PSU brands (These psu brands have decent-great PSUs, but also have a few outliers)
  • EVGA
  • Corsair
  • Antec
  • Cooler master
  • Be quiet!
  • Fractal Design
  • SilverStone
  • FSP.
Arguably the best brands, but that's a slight exaggeration.. :) 😉
  • Seasonic
  • XFX
  • Superflower
Conclusion
Most power supplies you buy should be fine as long as you're not pushing them to the very limits. I obviously didn't include every OEM and re-seller but I listed the main ones. Pretty much all PSU manufacturers sell good and bad power supplies, it just takes a little reviewing and forethought into your system requirements before you make a selection....
