I want to make sure the computer can handle Vista as well as some of the more recent games. I have been counseled that not all brands of vid cards will fit on the motherboard. Has anyone found this to be true?

What do you have on your computer? if you have PCI-E slot on you computer then any video card PCI-E will fit on it!!! Remember PCI is not PCI-E!!! so you just need to find out what u have.

All versions of PCI-E (1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 2.1, and 3.0) are all backward and forward compatible with eachother. You can place a card with a PCI-E 3.0 interface into an older motherboard that has a PCI-E x16 1.0 slot. All you need to worry about is the power supply being able to support the card. Putting a 7870 into a 2.0 or 2.1 slot won't slow it down either. PC games don't hog the bandwidth quite like Compute programs do. Consider this, a 6990 is a PCI-E 2.1 card and yet it uses more bandwidth than a 7970 that has a PCI-E 3.0 interface.
