Hello everyone! I feel that the simillar question has been asked quite a few times, but, I still have to check (better safe than sorry).

MB: ASUS M5A78L-M LE
( https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A78LM_LE/specifications/ )

Desirable GPU: GIGABYTE NVidia GeForce GT 730 2GB 64bit GV-N730D5-2GI rev.2.0

Simple question - are they compatible (and if so, please, explain to me, so that I can pass the knowledge to my friends and familly)? Thanks!
 
Solution
its compatibvle because that motherboard has a PCI-E x16 slot which that geforce GPU requires. but also you need to make sure the power supply they or you have is strong enough to handle the GPU

Awesome, thank you! I have a 550W PSU that could handle Radeon HD7770 1GB DDR5 (my old, broken GPU), so I assume that the PSU won't be the problem, correct?
