Motherboard to Processor and Video Card Compatibility Issue

Good day,

Hi! I'm Philip. I've got a mobo and vga compatibility issue. My current mobo is Gigabyte GA-8I915ME-G and I plan to buy a PCI-E vga card ATI HD4670 1Gb DDR3 / HD4670 512mb DDR3 / HD 4650 512mb DDR2

What PCI-E vga card can you suggest that'll be compatible for my mobo?
I've already provided my mobo and the vga cards' links.

Any pci-e graphics card should work with any motherboard with a pci-e slot in it.

Ok bro. Thanks for your advice. Also, I think it goes the same as to processors.

No, processors can be more of a pain. The best thing to do is decide on a motherboard then check the manual for it for processor compatability. Most motherboard manuals are available in pdf format from the manufacturers website.
