I'm setting up a fresh system with only the latest parts except the GTX 460. The advice says this card doesn't support UEFI BIOS, so you can't use UEFI BIOS at all. It also mentions compatibility with your motherboard and dual-booting Windows plus Linux—let me know if you need clarification on any of those points. Thanks for your understanding!

The card functions smoothly with UEFI BIOS settings. Newer cards may face issues on older boards lacking UEFI support, but your card should perform well.

They likely mean the solution isn't feasible based on current data or conditions.

They might be mistaken. A GTX 460 functions as a PCIe GPU. PCIe supports both forward and backward compatibility, so the device should operate in your updated system.

I understand the concern, though some are mentioning it doesn't support UEFI BIOS.

Actually, things remain the same here. It’s unclear why people feel that way.

It should function properly as though you had recently added a new graphics card, and you won’t need to modify the UEFI to BIOS settings.

Find the relevant section where misinformation appears. It might relate to Linux forums discussing Nvidia driver problems on Linux systems using UEFI BIOS firmware, which interfaces with the motherboard. The issue could also involve confusion around AGP cards, though those are outdated technology.

Your understanding has a gap, but the situation is quite complex. It seems the card you're using doesn't back UEFI support by design, which means your motherboard likely needs to handle both legacy and UEFI booting. This setup should still work, though it might be slower. I remember seeing mentions that some older cards aren't compatible with UEFI, and that even if drivers exist, the OS like Windows 11 may not recognize them. It's also puzzling since GPUs are usually driver-dependent but still function properly.
