1 Hello,
2
3 Well, I'm trying to reseach a 7850 slilent the silent
4 video card on an Gentoo based GA-99FXA-UD3 mobo.
5
6 I've had Asus Radeons HD 7750 in these mobo, and it
7 is an outstanding bargain workstation.

9 The PowerColor HD 7850 SCS3 seems to be getting really good
10 reviews, for the cost. I think it now comes in a 2 GB
11 of memory. This card says it is PCI-3.0 compliant.
12 I cannot find if the mobo I have (GA-99FXA-UD3) has
13 PCI 3 (16) ?
14
15 Will the card work anyway? Or should I wait until I get
16 a PCI 3.0 based mobo?
17
18 What I want is a silent video card, that can also drive dual
19 heads (nothing graphically intensive).

21 All comments are welcome (note: I'm an ardent AMD-Radeon consumer).

23 Tia,
