I have a Gigabyte G31TM-P21 Motherboard in my cpu.
I just want to know whether it will be compatible with
DX 11 graphic cards?
Can anyone help?

yes, its MSI G31TM-P21. well it got a PCIe X 16 slot. so will hold a DX 11 card. but what the other config? proccy, ram? also power supply? cause just inserting a fast DX11 card may bottleneck your proccy (if processor slow) or simply get burnt if PSU is a cheap one.
