I suggest you that if you want to know about which graphic card is supported by which motherboard then best option is to check out the manual of motherboard. Similarly you would have been provided with the same. If motherboard supports PCI then you should have graphic card that fits on PCI slot and similarly for AGP slot you should do the same. So first check for the slot and then accordingly find the same with graphic card and then take the decision.

Nowadays there are varieties of technology coming and thus you might get even confused with the PCI or PCI-E slots. So have a look on the same and then check for the compatibility. In between the AP slots are also there on the board as mentioned above. You could get the solution on the same by searching over the ATI website or from your motherboard website. Most probably the graphic card vendor usually updates their websites and thus it would also help you in getting that information.

Well I would give you a advice for this as it is really much important point to note about. As you are looking for the graphic card so you also need to check that the power supply unit of your computer is capable of supplying the appropriate power to the device connected. Since it might be the fresh hardware component which you are made-up to install on the computer and thus it may need additional power supply and may be the PSU of yours would be not be able to deliver the power supply for the same.

Well as you provided the graphic card model number, so searched for it and thought to provide some essential information to you for the same. This graphic card requires PCI-E slot on the motherboard. Also as I found that it requires an appropriate power for it and it nearly requires the power greater than 450tt. Also your computer system should have 1 GB of the computer memory, and this all things are the recommended ones which you should look on and then after make certain decision.

I went more deep over internet in order to find the actual support for your motherboard with the graphic card. The model number of the motherboard that you specified is having PCI-E slot and this is what you needed as your graphic card is even supporting the same. I would also suggest you that you have a latest direct x version on your computer as it is important software driver which is needed to be present on your operating system for having better performance from graphic card.
