intocomputing2 Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 A friend of mine is selling me this motherboard at a very affordable price:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128420and I have this old PCI video card:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130289I was wondering if I could put them together to build a desktop computer since the motherboard has no onboard video.

intocomputing2 Posted March 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 I thought there would be a problem since the standard memory for the motherboard is DDR3 and the other one is a GDDR2 PCI video card Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheTerrorist_75 Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 The motherboard's memory and the graphic card's memory are independent of each other. It shouldn't matter even if you used an old PCI card from an old original Pentium PC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
