Yes it is backward compatible, Note new in old will be slower

Uninstall the old drivers.
Check the Bios to see if you can switch the onboard off
Insert the new card, start the PC and install drivers

I hope this helps

Pooch

PS. Make sure your PSU supports the new card. The new card may require a separate power supply as well as more power.

The integrated graphics usually gets disabled automatically when the computer detects a graphic card in the PCI-E slot.

Don't worry too much about newer cards in PCI-E 2.0. It won't be a noticable difference as a lot of cards don't even use all the bandwidth available of a PCI-E 1.1 slot, which means putting them in a PCI-E 2.0 slot won't make much of a difference.

Archie just said what it is...
