Will a MSI ms 7528 motherboard be able to run zotac gtx 1050ti.
Thanks in advance.
(Warning : I already know that it has a pciE x16 gen 1.0 slot so please do not recommend me a new motherboard unless you are willing to gift it to me :p )

In theory, it should be compatible because all PCI-E versions are backwards compatible with each other. It will be kind of a waste imo, you can't be running any CPU that's good enough to play games that take advantage of a 1050 on such an old motherboard. I'd suggest you get something even lower or nothing at all. You'd be better off buying a new motherboard instead of the video card, and in the future getting the video card.
