You decide to upgrade your computer. Good selection of "iron" today a very large and diverse. But here you come into the store and are faced with the problem: will are compatible all the main components of the system unit, if you buy them separately? Now look.

So let's talk about compatibility of video cards and motherboards. The first thing I want to draw your attention to the fact that the overall compatibility of the video card and the motherboard does not affect the frequency at which they operate. Type of memory ( DDR ) for motherboard and graphics card are two different things. And never mind if these values differ. First of all, should be noted, is the interface card and the socket of the motherboard. A simple example: you will never be able to use a graphics card with AGP in the motherboard, which supports PCI. There are, of course, exceptions, but this is rare. In addition, the compatibility of the video card and motherboard is affected by the fact that they can be from the same manufacturer. If you are fond of 3D graphics or computer games, you probably heard about the technology to combine multiple graphics cards on one machine. Methods of combining different. There is a SLI - supported graphics cards from nVidia and Crossfire is the equivalent from Ati. Not all motherboards support both types. So when choosing  the motherboard and graphics card pay attention to this detail.

Now consider the compatibility of the processor and graphics card. Remember, not always powerful, modern processor and a good  the graphics card will show good results by working together. So far the exact classification of which processor better to take for a particular video card, no. However, there are two more or less precise definition. First: when you buy NEVER pick up a CPU for the video card. Practice shows that nothing good comes out. On the contrary. Second: if you need a good gaming PC, then buy a video card and processor such that they seem to complement each other. Otherwise you risk to overpay for them a tidy sum. With 3d graphics, everything is easier - the more cores the processor and memory  card, the better. As a rule, in this case any special priorities in the choice of these components is missing. In any case, don't follow  the coolness in the names. Personally  I can say that a strong CPU  intel core i 7 did not "love" cards 5th series from ATI ( I mean not those, a couple of tens of thousands of rubles and more affordable).

And finally, we reached the most interesting. About the compatibility of the cards has been written countless papers, however, the materials are often different. One thing is for sure: if you're going to use any of the technologies of combining SLI or Crossfire, be very careful. Video cards must be absolutely identical in characteristics. This means that manufacturers, bus speed, number of cores, and so should be the same. Otherwise, you at least won't get noticeable performance gain, and sometimes even non - working graphics card. About   Crossfire, I want to say separately. In addition, the miracle of thought only works on graphics  ATI, and supports up to 4 graphics cards, it should be noted a significant disadvantage. Almost all videocards in crossfire mode very, very quickly overheat if they are not only is a powerful cooling, price almost to the graphics card. So be careful, one never knows, you will burn card.

Finally I will say that the compatibility of the video card and motherboard as well as CPU and all the compatibility between all these components is affected by one simple factor -  what do you expect from your PC. You just have to choose those desires that can execute computer. Something you win, but something lose – it's axiomatic.
