Which gaming graphics card (Similar to the GTX 960) can fit on the G3610 motherboard.

HelpNeededPls · Aug 13, 2016

I found out that the GTX 960/970 doesn't fit on my motherboard, I need help to find one that does fit and which is really good for gaming.

Here are the specs of my PC:
CPU: Intel i5 - 3450 3.1Ghz
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 7670
RAM: 8GB
Motherboard: G3610
ProductName: Acer Predator
PCI Express x1 Slots: 3
PCI Express x16 Slots: 1

Thank you,

The issue with video cards is not usually your motherboard, but your case. Make sure that your case has room for long graphics cards. A GTX 970 is going to need about 10.5 inches of clearance. Good gaming cases are designed to allow plenty of room for the 16x pcie slot. Your motherboard has a slot that should accept a GTX 970, and that card should work in it so I am not sure what the issue actually is here.

Well, I have a very big case with enough space. The guy that should install the GTX 960 said it's not compatible because of the motherboard.

I am no expert, But if you have a PCI-Express x16 slot, and you remove your old videocard, there is room. Whether it's 2.0 or 3.0 shouldnt matter too much because gpu's which are 3.0 also support 2.0 PCI-Express slots. As long as you have an appropriate power supply and enough clearance any gpu should fit in a pci-express x16 slot

(Edit; I'm no expert on this stuff so I might be wrong, 80% sure i am right tho)
