Firstly, the Gigabyte brand on a graphics card is just the middle man between ATI/Nvidia (The graphic card manufacturer) and us. All they do is they might add a different cooling solution or maybe overclock it in GIGABYTE's factories. They do not alter the actual graphics card, so every graphics card that has a brand such a Gigabyte, XFX, Asus, etc, are basically just the same card. To ensure your graphic card works in your motherboard, before buying (if you haven't bought it already), check for what connections the graphics card has. Common connections today is a PCI-Express x16 2.0 slot on your motherboard, a 6-pin power connector (may be supplied a 4-pin to 6-pin converter with some graphic cards), and a big enough power supply to suit the graphic card's needs. If you had both a same brand graphics card and motherboard, it would work more smoothly in the amount of possible errors and perhaps the performance, but most of it would NOT be noticeable. I'd HIGHLY RECOMMEND you to go to a computer technical support forum (I've added some in 'Related Links' section below) and create an account then post a thread about your situation. Make sure to post in the proper forum and read the rules (if there are any) or you possibly won't get any help. When creating, be sure to mention, what brand and model, your motherboard and power supply. More information may be required for them to help but if you're not sure how to get that information, politely ask them. Warning: DO NOT GO INTO YOUR COMPUTER CASE UNTIL YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND THE RISKS AND CAUTIONS INVOLVED.
