I have a GA-8I915PL-g motherboard what graphic card can i use for it i know its a pci express but how do i choose?

Hi and welcome to the Gigabyte forum.

Your motherboard supports PCIE x16 graphics cards therefore more or less any modern graphics card will fit. A lot depends on what you want to do with the system and your budget.

It dosent have to be a ddr type

I think you are getting mixed up with memory. DDR is a spec of memory modules.

[rebecca21]

So any suggestions so many to choose from

[Dark Mantis]

Well I really need some input from you. I said in my initial post that it depends on your budget and what you want to do with your system.

Please don't shout!

In that case most any card in that price range will serve you well. Personally I prefer the AMD Radeon range of cards but the nVidia range are fine.

Something like the Radeon 5670 would be a good all round card for what you require and this particular model is worth a look.

Sorry I just realised you said dollars not pounds. You will have to go down a bit from that then.
Maybe more like this:

The Sapphire card I posted is one of the better makes in my opinion, but obviously there are others. Gigabyte do their own version if it is available near you.
