How can I tell what slots available on my mobo?

Mark M · 3 Mar 2016 at 19:23

I have no idea of the make or model of the mobo and Id like to add another graphics card for 2 more monitors. This is all office based stuff and nothing intensive. Obviously I can open the case and see whats not in use but I would have no idea what type the were and what was therefore compatible. Is there any software that can tell me this?

CPU-Z can tell you what board it is. Then google the board and see what it has in terms of expansion slots.

Is this a pre-built system because if it is, you should be able to find the board model from web searching the PC model e.g. Dell Optiplex 3020.

Ive got CPU-Z so I'll give that a go now thanks and try and find the board model.

Its not a pre built system but its my home "work" PC that has been cobbled together with spare parts.

You can open the case and the model of the motherboard is normally on the board itself.
