Hi there, Here is how to find out what is compatible with your motherboard. (or any motherboard). Do a google search for" your motherboard specs". You will find a link for it where you can find out what is compatible. The link below (tiger Direct site) shows your motherboard will support any kind of video card. It has one PCIE X16 slot which is what most of the newer video cards use. The next thing is your power supply wattage should be great enough to provide enough power for the video card you choose. Probably you should have a power supply of 500 watts to 600 watts which would handle most video cards. Hope this helps, Al

By learning how to read You must have never bought anything Because mostly everything has a compatibility list and instructions

The motherboard has what are called "expansion slots." There are three main types of expansion slots: PCI, AGP and PCI-Express. So if you buy a video card, it needs to fit in one of those expansion slots. Seeing as how this looks like a fairly new motherboard, you're going to want a PCI-Express video card.
