Need to know if you have AGP or PCI interface on the motherboard.

The X1650 is using the PCI-E slot, so no it wont work. You need an motherboard that has PCI-E slot.

Thanks for the quick response, The motherboard has 1 x AGP Pro/8X (1.5V only)
& 5 x PCI Slots.

The card will work if it is a AGP slot card. Check out the EVGA 7800GS AGP. It is on sale for about $120.00. I'm not a big fan of ATI at the moment. The choice is yours in the end though

The Graphic card is an AGP Sapphire X1650 Pro 512MB DDR2 AVIVO TV/Out 8X AGP

If it's the AGP version of the card and your motherboard has an AGP slot, it works. Didnt know there was an AGP version of it earlier.

ATI seems to be keeping production on the AGP set up. Some of the newer cards are AGP. It is a dying breed though.
