My current mother board is 2000mt/s and I'm getting a motherboard that is 4800mt/s.
Would I have to change bus transport cords or it doesn't matter?

No, you'll be fine. BTW, what are you planning on doing with that board? If it's gaming or anything, I'd recommend something else. That board only supports PCIe 2.0 and not 3.0 (3.0 cards will work on 2.0 just fine, but you could probably find something for a similar price that supports 3.0)

The new motherboard I'm upgrading to is GA-970A-DS3.
So I don't have to worry about the bus speed?

Ya it's for light gaming, not like fps, I play more mmos like Tera but I can deal with a PCIe 2.0 since I have a graphics that supports the motherboard already
The mother I bought already costed 61.74 which is a really good price. Other places sells it at 80$
