Hi,
My current CPU is a Pentium G2120 and I am looking to upgrade the graphics without going to buy a tonne more stuff for my rig. I came across the Sapphire Radeon HD 7750 1GB GDDR5 so I could play some newer games. Upon reading, I noticed that the Radeon HD 7750 uses PCI express 3.0, when my CPU supports up to PCI express 2.0. I don't know how this will affect the usage of the card, can I get some help?

PCI versions make zero to little difference in performance. They're all forward and backward compatible so it doesn't matter.

Thanks for the quick response, I did some researching but couldn't really find that much about the setup I really wanted.
