What things inside a computer decide if a GPU is compatible with a computer?
I have the Asus M32CD and it has 1 PCI-Express 16x. I think the size is sufficient. But will the Pascal or the nvidia 970 (the one I want to buy) fit and what decides it it is compatible. Thanks.
 
Solution
Presence of a Pci express x16 v1, v2, or v3 slot all slots are backwards compatible. Presence of a good quality psu with a 6pin/8pin or both pcie power connector. Presence of ample space to fit the gpu.
