So looking for a graphics card and...

Well they are running a deal, get a graphics card and get Deus Ex, and since I need a new one (currently running an integrated one actually) I figured now would be a good time. However I ran into an issue. Not so sure I can install them.

I am running Windows XP, and this is my motherboard.

The graphics cards I am looking at require a PCI Express 2.1 x16 port and my ability to run directx 11.

Not sure if the ports I have work, or if XP is still supported by them.

Should it work?

PS currently no ports are being used, so room is a non-issue
