Want to upgrade / build new pc
The motherboard is not the issue. The only way it’d not fit would be the case not accommodating
Also is there a reason you want nvidia? Atm, unless you get a used deal, they’re a bad choice
Wdym “will it work”
If you’re worried that intel and amd won’t be compatible, you’d be wrong
as long as it physically fits in the case/motherboard, it will almost certainly work
the only thing to look out for is having the required power cables for whatever new gpu you add
could you find how many pcie cables are on your psu?
uhhh
open the back side panel and count how many of these you find. one or more may only have 6 pins instead of 8
does your gpu use a 6 pin or 8 pin?
could you take a picture of the connection?
if you look closely at this pic too, there's a little wire sticking off that cable that turns that 6 pin into an 8 pin. its commonly called 6 + 2 and exists for backwards-compatibility
dang
must be a low power model
and you're sure the cables are 6 pin only?
thats good
so that means you can power a lot of gpus
