Yes, XFX GT8600 512 MB DD3 Graphic card will definitely work on your AMD 785G MA785GM-US2H. XFX GT8600 becomes hot very easily but can work on your configuration. But i still recommend you to sell it and purchase a new graphic card for better performance. !!!

Thanks A ton Comodo, really appreciate your response, I dont mean to be sticky but thought worth asking just one more question here, given the graphic ability of Gigabyte AMD 785G MA785GM-US2H which graphic card would you suggest so as to compliment games performance in my kind of configuration. (also withing reasonable budget).... :-)

Thanks again in advance mate!!!1
