    I have a compatibility question?

    My mainboard is Intel BOXDZ68BC - socket 1155 base
    It has 2 PCIe 16X
    I did my homework on the ati radeon 6000 series.
    It seems to me the best or second best card to get is the MSI Radeon R6970 Lightning.
    My ? is: Is it compatible with my mainboard (Intel BOXDZ68BC)?
    The Video Card is about $400 dallors.

    Yes, it should work just fine, as it has a PCIe x16 slot. However, you also need to make sure your power supply will support it. What power supply do you have?
