Hello i'm buying a new graphic card Gigabyte GeForce GTX 660, 2 GB, PCI-E (GV-N660OC-2GD) and i was wondering because this graphic card has PCI-E 3.0 and my mobo P8H61-M LX2 has PCI-E 2.0 x16 and i was wondering if the graphic card would work without any big issues ?

Yeah itll work just fine. the difference between 2.0 and 3.0 is tiny and you wont notice any less performance out of it.
