Hello,
I want to upgrade my old graphics card - 512MB GeForce 9400 GT (gigabyte) video card. The bus interface is PCI Express 16. My motherboard is: Gigabyte EP45-UD3R (socket 775) with 8Gigs of DDR2 ram. I have been told that in order to do this I must purchase a new motherboard because the newer graphics cards do not use PCI slots. As you can see I'm a novice in this area and would appreciate your advice.
thanks in advance
