yeah, i can see even the older c2ds having no issue, maybe even the Pentium D (dual presshot squished together), but the P-D setup is pushing that one a little lol

 

i would say any c2d unless someone can show that P-D or A64 X2 (the old s939 ones) don't have any issue with it.

 


EDIT: did you change the question on us lol?

 

mobo from amd? there are a ton of venders out there that can have differetn mobo designs, some could have no PCIE slots (like ones for OEM computers) and you just simply cannot plug in the card.....
