Talking about compatibility, i mean stability for long run, not just system booting. I'm using Gigabyte mainboard, and tried to plug a CPU not on their support list. To my surprised, the system booted. But it was not stable. If everything is fine, then there's no need for Gigabyte to make something called "Graphics Card Support List". Which one do you trust, the manufacture or your PCI-e SPECIFICATION ?
Arabia_vn,
I'm sure you mean well but you are so lost it's incredible.
-
ALL of the cards on that list MUST comply with the PCI-e specification first to get on that list.
If they do not, they are not and cannot be called PCI-e cards.
-
And your comment has nothing to do with front/back compatibility of PCI-e cards and slots.
- Which was the incorrect statement you made that I will not leave uncorrected as it may lead someone reading this later on in the wrong direction.
Also note, the GA-G31M-S2L does not have a "Graphics Card Support List".
That is because the board works with ANY PCI-e card, unlike the GA-EG45M-DS2H which has compatibility issues with some cards making a "Graphics Card Support List" necessary.
- And before you wander off that way, such compatibility issues have nothing to do with the slot interface. It's a matter drivers and the chipset on the motherboard.

Ok, agree that compatibility issues have nothing to do with the slot interface. I just wanted to warn ppl about some MBs which have a low quality "lame x4" Pciex x16 for video card. Many ppl dont pay attention to that and they may have problems when ugrading, just like many ppl did with some 945 MB before.
-
Do you know what an industry standard SPECIFICATION is?
- If a part does not meet the PCI-e SPECIFICATION it would be ILLEGAL to call it PCI-e compliant.
