May i ask do my motherboard Gigabyte GA-H55M-USB can support STRIX-R9-380x-4GD5-Gaming graphic cards or even the MSI-AMD-R9-390-8GD5 graphic cards ?

I knew my motherboard is quite old but i not sure that it can support or not ?

my current specifications :

PSU : HuntKey 700W
CPU: Core i5-750m
RAM: 2x DDR3-1600 8GB
GPU: strix AMD R7-370-d2oc-2GD5

You're fine. There really aren't graphics card compatibilities to worry about at all. If it physicallly fits in the slot, you're good to go. PCIe is backwards compatible with previous generations, the only difference is bandwidth, which no consumer GPU is ever going to exceed.

So u mean that my that old motherboard can support the MSI-AMD-R9-390-8GD5 - Gaming Graphic cards @@ ? I'm not thinking to change my motherboard yet because my board still can function n it would be such a waste if i just change it = =

Because I'm changing my graphic card due to the recent games requirement is too large = =, n i have seen that the price difference between the 4GB DDR5 and 8GB DDR5 price is not large , i worry that after i bought the 8GB R9-390 graphic card can fit in my board but cannot functions due to incompatiblities.

Nope. You're fine. Make sure your PSU can provide enough power, but outside of that, you're good to go.
