Based on that I would guess it should work, But, note the other requirements shown regarding power connections / rating. You would need to have a suitable 6-pin 75W connection available from a minimum of 500W power supply. Plus recommended minimum of 4GB RAM, which is ok since you have 8GB.
Hope that helps.
