I came across some posts across the internet stating that these 5 series radeons have compatibility issues with pcie 1.0a boards, haven’t come across a problem with the g31 chipset though.
I’m using a MSI G31TM-P21 mobo… can any member confirm whether these 5 series cards, specially the 5750 work with g31 motherboards having a pcie 1.0a x16 slot?? I’m really having a hard time going ahead with my purchase of this card because of this issue… i came across a thread here (can’t find it anymore though) with the issue but nothing definite came out of it.
@Devinwolf well i know its not one of those extreme performance ones, as my build was a bit limited by my budget, but i can live with a bit drop in framerates and i don’t think its gonna be a major issue since i’ll be using it at max 1680x1080 resolution…
@rahulgoel & devinwolf, are you sure cause i haven’t come across anyone using the card with a g31 let alone my mobo :(… n reading the no POST issues with 1.0a slots has really got me thinking…
