How to know if video card is compatible with motherboard

Your first link is to an Intel site, but both statements declare the link is to your graphics card. The title mentions your motherboard, which is not mentioned or linked in the main text. That CPU will work with that GPU, though. Sandy Bridge would be PCIe 2.0, but that won't matter, as the GTX 760 (Which is PCIe 3.0) is fully compliant (To my knowledge) with PCIe 2.0

If I knew which motherboard you had, I could give a better answer.

Edit: Please, also link the power supply unit you have.

Okay, you linked a processor- i3 and a graphics card/video card. The graphics card and video card refer to the same component, which is the 760 you linked. The motherboard is where you would need to make sure both your gpu and cpu are compatible. Any 1155 socket motherboard with an unoccupied PCIex16 slot would be compatible with both that cpu and gpu.
