There have been some compatibility issues recently with both vid cards and RAM matching up with MoBos. Best bet is to check your MoBo manual (or
preferably website.)
Even if the slots and capabilities are right, some combos have had problems. They may have a list of confirmed compatible components. That said, if
yours is not listed as compatible, that doesn't man it isn't.
I recently had to replace my mobo. Different brand, but newer and "better" (specs-wise on paper.) Anyhow, major problems with my RAM. Apparently the
board doesn't send ideal voltage to it. I finally found a solution online that involved increasing the voltage by a fraction of a volt.
Unfortunately, I'm not knowledgeable with this stuff enough to provide you an answer, just good at trial/error, searching, swearing, and occasionally
smashing a mouse in frustration. BUT... Most likely you're fine, just wanted to point out that even if they don't get along well, there could be a
BIOS tweak or flash that will fix any compatibility issues.
