Compatibility problem while making pc

samir167ahuja · Jul 5, 2015

Hey I am gonna build my first pc. I am really confused. How do I go about it? The rig i assembled has most products out of stock. How do I check if graphic cards are compatible with motherboards? See this for eg.http://www.snapdeal.com/product/sapphire-hd5450-1gb-ddr3-graphic/217155#bcrumbSearch:ASUS%20AMD/ATI%20HD%205450%201%20GB%20DDR3
Thats the card and http://www.flipkart.com/gigabyte-ga-f2a55m-ds2-motherboard/p/itmdgb8yehebcybd?pid=MBDDGB8YEHEBCYBD&ref=L%3A-9124170435199548919&srno=p_1&query=Gigabyte+GA-F2A55M-DS2&otracker=from-search
Thats the motherboard. Are they compatible? How do you check all this?

yes they're compatible. your vga card needs 1 full length pci-e slot. and your motherboard has a pci-e slot.
that's all there is to it regarding common gpu and mobo compatibility, the connector.

motherboard vendor web pages has spec for there mb and they also have a list under support for tested ram and cpu. some times this list can be over a year old. with gpu and cpu read up on how well they stack up and how old they are. your video card that you posted is a few years old and is less powerfull then newer cards that are out now and use more power. if your on a fix build...look at adding better gpu when you have the money and use onboard video to start. also look at auction sites for used newer gpu.

The are compatiable but do not go for that GPU. Most integrated Graphics cards are better than that GPU.

If you are on a very tight budget, go for atleast a R7 240 -> http://fkrt.it/kRM5XpNN
