SO, im helping a friend look for graphics cards, he only has a 1.0 slot on his MB, so do any of you have good suggestions? He mainly plays COD and his max price is around $150.00
Thank You!

PCIe x16 2.0 is backwards compatible with revision 1.0.

An HD 4850 or 9800GTX+ if you can find it at that price. However, if his needs are only CoD4/5, then even a good $50 card (8800GS/9600GSO) can max out CoD4/5 at medium resolutions (<1920x1200), and overclocking it will yield even better speeds. However, if your friend is completely fine with spending $150 or wants to be slightly more future-proof, then an HD 4850 or 9800GTX+ is the way to go.

It does work.

Don't know about the problem why it would have not been detected tho.

Maybe it didn't get enough power. (I have a 9600GT)
9600GT needs the 'extra' power cable to work properly.
And requires at least a 400W PSU.

Yes it works
I've got a HD4850 and my mobo also only supports PCI-e x16 1.0
