Its hard to garentuee compatability as some products simply don't work with others for reasons that are really hard to spot, however it should be ok, its a good GPU however if your paying more than £250 for it get a HD7950 or HD7970 instead imo.

Ahh ok, its a pretty unbeatable deal, then, like I said it should work but I can't exactly promise anything, out of interest what CPU have you got in that motherboard?

yeah, well i just read that ur gettin it cheaper so then its a good deal. otherwise i wouldnt recommend it that much considering 600/700 series. But for that price you are good to go! :)

Thats good, just wanted to see if your CPU would bottleneck your GPU, I doubt it will.
