    Default Old Mb new GPU

    Can I use a Radeon 7750 or 7770 , like:

    PowerColor Official Website - Graphics, Cases, Power Supply -- PowerColor HD7770 GHz Edition 1GB GDDR5

    with my trusted asrock 939SLI32-eSATA2. ( from 2006, with "latest" 1.40 bios ).
    Its a pci express x16, I quess it's version 1.0, but I'm not sure.

    ASRock > 939SLI32-eSATA2


    Can I damage slot or card by experimenting?

    500W PSU
    .

    beste regards

    Both video cards should be backward compatible with your pci-e 1.x motherboard.
    Both of my MSI N460GTX video cards have excellent stock and overclocked performance in my older P35-DS3L and N650SLI-DS4 1.x systems.

    The link to your power supply is broken.
    Any halfway decent 500 watt power supply will be fine with either of the cards.

    Loading OPTIMIZED bios defaults is REQUIRED before you tweak your bios settings.
    This includes new system setups and immediately after flashing your bios!!!
