Building a new pc can anyone tell me if this video card will work with this mainboard (mother)?

Mainboard (Motherboard)

Gigabyte GA-MA790X-DS4 AMD 790X Chipset ATX Socket AM2

(have this already only to find i need a video card)

looking at this

ASUS GeForce 8600GT 512Mb PCIe Video Card DVI nVidia

(cant find out if it is compatable)|||Yeah it will work with that motherboard..And at its max but the problem is that ur mobo is based on ATI crossfire technology under which u can use 2 graphic cards(GPU's) at the same time but that card is based on NVIDIA SLI technology.SO the only thing is that u wont be able to use 2 of them at the same time but with just one of them it will work absolutely fine...

Hope i helped

Smarth..|||Yes it will work .. but the problem is that the motherboard is an ATI supported mobo + the motherboard has a 2.0 version of pci-e slot you don't wanna use a 8600GT since this card is an old version (1.0 pci-e ) ,, what i mean that is the video card you are putting on this motherboard is very old , it will work ,, but the motherboard is too much for this card if you know what i mean ,, try buying a HD 4850 instead of 8600GT that's better !!|||It shall work, But you should be focusing on if you have a power supply that has enough amps on the 12v rail to handle that videocard.



a power supply without enough amps, Will cause system instability, Crashes, Overheating video card.|||Yes it will work.and you can consider use PCI -express 2 card|||Hi,

Yes it will work, It may not be the best choice, the video card is pci express version 1 and the motherboard is pci express version 2. If you get a PCI -express 2 card the performance will theoretically be better (all other thing equal) they seem a bit expensive though. Here is some further info.
