z220 CMT - newer GPUs compatibility

Hi,

 

I have recently bought a used z220 CMT workstation, that came from the factory with Win7 64bits Pro installed. Currently the machine is running on Win 10 64 Pro. I've read that some older HP products may have some BIOS troubles when running  some of the newer generations of GPUs (lets say for example a GTX 1050 ti). After reading some posts here it was still not clear if workstations like mine can or cannot support newer video cards.


I also read that ATI's R5XX and Nvidea's GTX 10XX series require UEFI Boot motherbords. My Z220 has the HP 1790 Motherboard with a K51 v01.54 Bios (12/21/2012) and in the boot menu it has some UEFI boot options (DVD, Usb and Network) however my hard drives are only displayed under Legacy Boot Devices. I can't tell if those 3 options on the BIOS Boot Setup are enough to determine if my mobo has UEFI Bios or not.

 

Is my machine compatible with graphic cards that require UEFI motherboards in order to work?

 

Thanks.
