Hello, there..

I'm going to build ryzen pc, but my money still far enough to buy all parts at once.
So i decided to buy Zotac 1060 AMP! + Evga GQ 750W first.
 

Here's my spec
Gigabyte H55M-S2V
Core i3-540 with built in gpu
RAM 4GB+2GB DDR3 running at 1333
Generic PSU

I don't know if my PCIE slot still work properly or not, cause i never put any GPU on it..
As we know, my mobo is very old, it doesn't have protection for gpu, am i need to buy cheap gpu first to try or give it a try?
Please look carefully at my mobo, is it look fine or not ? :/
Thanks

Mobo

afaik the power standard for PCI-e has been around for ages, well before your mobo was manufactured. Since you're getting rid of the generic PSU, you should be just fine.

The GPU might be bottlenecked though

Protection for GPU? WTF?

The only protection I'm aware of it the reinforcement some modern mobo's have on their PCIe slots to prevent an extra heavy graphics card from breaking the slot. apart from that there is no such thing as protection for a GPU. If the motherboard is compatible with your graphics card then you won't have an issue.

Your PCIe slot looks fine

Again, if it doesn't, you are getting a new motherboard anyway. No need to regret not buying CPU and mobo first because ryzen doesn't come with integrated graphics as far as I'm aware.

For protection for GPU.... PCIe slot doesn't give any. What does is the PSU's voltage and current fuses. What can protect your PCIe slot (both new and old mobo) is to lock the card onto the case with a screw on the slot of the card. This can prevent the mass of the card breaking the PCIe slot

PCIe slots don't roast GPUs. More like the opposite, when a GPU takes too much power from the PCIe slot it can roast the slot.

well yeah, a bad mobo can fry anything but that would be pretty unlucky. That you never used the pcie slot doesnt mean that it doesnt work...

 

stop marking my post funny and actually clean your damn pc. i am surprised your cpu is not overheating
