Mother board plus graphics card

[thewhitepowderwizard]

is gigabyte ga-78lmt-usb3 comapnble with the https://www.mightyape.co.nz/product/asus-amd-radeon-r7-360-2gb-gddr5-graphics-card/24559625

i have 500 power supply i dont use any of the graphics card slots so it should fit right?

Yes it's compatible. And your power supply is more than enough for it.

yes they will work together.
the motherboard supports PCIe2.0 the card is PCIe3.0 so there may be a slight bottleneck
the power supply should be fine

do you mean the dimensions ? recon it will fit in?

Pcie is the slot. It will fit logically, not sure about space in your case.

no PCIe speeds.
technically the card was made for a faster bus than the motherboard supports, so the card will downclock/limit itself to the slower speeds.
the GPU, think the fastest car you can think of, will have to drive on roads with speed limits (motherboard). if you change the motherboard later the performance cap on the GPU will lift.
clumsy analogy.
the age of the motherboard (PCIe 2.0) will keep the card from going as fast as it can (PCIe 3.0)
the card will fit into the slot with no issues at all and it will run. the main issue should be whether the card will physically fit inside the case.
Which case do you have?

i have this one

https://www.google.co.nz/search?q=deepcool+tesseract+sw+mid+tower+case+with+window&espv=2&biw=1366&bih=662&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiAv-We-u3QAhVHEpQKHatXB_IQ_AUIBigB

what about the power cables below the gpu will they get in the way of the new graphics card?

^ no difference between PCI express 2 & 3 with a 360.

 

[R_1]

the tesseract will hold a full size card. you should be good to go.

thanks for the clarification there madmatt30

That's hard for us to tell, but the deepcool tesseract is a pretty big case so I'm positive that the r7 360 should fit in easily.
