How to determine wich video card will fit?

So for example i have motherboard, and i using DDR2 port for RAM. does it mean that it's have to be DDR2 for video card too?|||What you need to look into is , what kind of slot does it have in you motherboard, it could either be PCI or PCI-E , those are the two commonly used for commercial PC. A ddr2 memory, doesn't affect the needed data rate of video card. so its pointless in asking.



PS. be sure that the Motherboard could support the "clock rate" of the video card|||If you have a newer computer any card will fit.What you want to check is that the power supply in the computer will handle the extra load of the card.Most computers ether have a 300 or 500 watt power supply.check the wattage in yours and buy accordingly.

The last one I bough had an extra gig of memory on board.I got mine from tiger direct and you can call to make sure you are getting the correct one.Great service.www.tigerdirect.com

Good luck and stay grounded.
