I am looking into upgrading my long in the tooth video card, don't get me wrong it's been working great, but i bought it back in 2012,
Gainward GeForce GTX 570 Goes Like Hell 1280MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card getting very old now, so i was looking at the Gigabyte
GeForce GTX 1060 WindForce OC 6144MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card, but now i have been reading more up about the UEFI on the new motherboards which my motherboard does not have, Gigabyte Z68X-UD3H-GEN3 Intel Z68 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard seeing it's a very old 2012 board, and may be the newer video cards need the new UEFI bios updates, there is a bios update for my motherboard but it's only a beta and am very reluctant to mess with a bios update, will and do i need to have to have a UEFI bios now to get any new video cards booting with my motherboard?
I run windows 7 also.
