    Compatible?

    Building myself a new rig. Giving my old to my girlfriend. Looking at buying this GPU to tide me over till the new ones and then swapping it to the old one cause it needs an upgrade anyways.

    Current MOBO: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...594&CatId=2541

    GPU: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...689&CatId=3669

    Thanks

    Unless I'm misreading something, yes they are compatible, iirc pci-e slots are backwards-compatible.

    It'll work as long as your power supply can power that GTX560.
