I am looking to buy an older used AMD 5770 that runs on PCI-E 2.1 but I currently have PCI-E 1.1 with my Intel X38 chipset. I am wondering if the card will be backwards compatible with PCI-E 1.1.
My current build is
BFG TECH GTX+/GTX 9800
Intel C2D e8400
475W Delta PSU with a 6-pin power connector
Intel x38 chipset with PCI-E 1.1
HP MB-XW4600-TW-HPQ(motherboard)
8 GB of DDR2 RAM
Any replies would be appreciated because i am picking up the card tomorrow evening. It would be great to get advice before i venture into the deep unknown to pick up a card that may or may not work.
Thanks in advance
