“The specs show the mother board has 1 PCI-E x16 Slot. I am looking to upgrade the card to the amd 590 which states it needs the PCI-E 3.0, Am I going to be able to add this card or will I not get full performance out of it?”

• You would need to remove the 580 to insert the 590, but keep in mind that the 590 uses more power and may require a power supply upgrade, which is neither cheap nor easy. We recommend a computer technician assist you and consult you further.
