I think so as it's backwards compatible. However, I ain't sure about what
sort of speed increase you would get over your last card. Taht and whether
the CPU is good enough as well to play more of the latest games in more
detail/resolution as well.

I have the same motherboard at the moment with the xp2400+ 266fsb chip and
even I find with the 9800pro that some games are beginning to jerk about
etc.

But I don't see a problem, the card will just run at a slower speed on the
4x bus that's all.
