How to determine what motherboard I have

[Arikaen]

Thanks. If you don't mind explaining, why can't I go for the 7850 if it and the 7750 both use PCI 3.0 x16 connectors?

if you have pci 3x16 then yeah you can go with that but in your initial post you said pic x16 not pci 3.0 x 16.

also use this site it should help when choosing. I go between newegg.com and this benchmark site to determine what graphcs card to get.

I guess that's where my confusion is. Both cards say pci 3.0 x 16. So I need to find a plain pci x16. Thanks!
