Check your BIOS. If you see the option to enable resizable BAR (aka "Above 4G decoding" on the PCIe bus) then you will be fine. The card will just be limited to 3.0 8x speeds as opposed to 4.0 8x speeds (PCI bandwidth cut in half).

I havent checked yet if my mobo had the option to enable it. Anyways would the gpu still work without enabling it or is it required to have it enabled? Imma try to find it in my bios on the next day to see if i can enable it

You'll want to have resizable BAR enabled or an Intel GPU won't be what you want to purchase as their hw/driver expects this support and performance will suffer immensely without it.

The Intel Battlemage B580 GPU should technically work with your Asus Prime A320M-K motherboard, provided the motherboard has a standard PCIe x16 slot (which it does). Compatibility primarily depends on the GPU's power requirements and physical size fitting your case.

However, check the following:

  • BIOS Update: Ensure your motherboard's BIOS is updated to the latest version for better GPU compatibility.
  • PSU Capacity: Confirm your power supply can handle the GPU's wattage.
  • Case Dimensions: Verify the GPU fits in your case.

With these in check, it should work!

@PatterRoni   Do not be so sure about that.  Look at the requirements:

I updated my bios on the Asus website i only dont have Lan updated and my psu is a Gigabyte P450B my pc uses 180w max without a gpu and the intel B580 uses 240w sometimes but since i have a pcie 3.0 mobo and a slower cpu so it will use less wattage cuz of bottlenecking and my case size is alr
