PCI 2.0 x16 Bandwidth/Bottleneck?

Solution
I might be the one that send you that link before (I'm almost certain, as I use it alot on these forums) and yes, even though some people still will say no and whole hearted believe that it isn't bottlenecking, then there is a bottleneck and even though it not might be a big impact or an impact at all on your average usage, then it will still be there. People using PCI-E 3.0 x16 with an almost similar configuration as you will have better performance in gaming. Simple as that.

Actually I was confused because there was conflicting information from this post I read previously:

http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1717219/gtx-760-pci.html

The best solution answer said it had to do with the clock of the PCI 2.0 x16 being 5GHZ therefore there would be a bottleneck because the GTX 770 has a memory speed of 7GHZ.

Are you right or is the poster right?

Thank you :)
