...you want to tell us what motherboard you actually have, so we can tell you if it will work? :p 


That being said, the graphics card doesn't matter as long as the motherboard has a PCIe 2.0 or 3.0 slot, which anything even remotely modern will. The CPU actually has to fit into the socket of the motherboard, so is a lot more picky.

Good job. ;) 

If that's made by ECS, then it's the one I think it is, in which case...

No. It has serious issues. It's a $34 motherboard, which you want to pair with a $200 CPU? While it has the correct socket, I would be very surprised if it had either the BIOS or power support for a high end chip like that, and could cause some serious issues.

Also, just throwing out there, why are you spending extra for a 4GB card? That doesn't make it go faster. Racing stripes do that; everybody knows this. ;)

I agree.
And don't get the AMD FX CPUs,AM3+ socket is dead,LGA1150 and LGA2011 are taking over.
