I want to buy these components, but when I'm reading the product specifications of the motherboard tells me this: (. The PCIEX16 slot Conforms to PCI Express 3.0 standard) [
* To support PCI Express 3.0, you must install an FM2 + APU.] Does this mean please help me? I want to buy these components
 
Solution
Even if PCIExpress 2.0 is only available on the FM2 chip, the 760 is backwards compatible with PCIE 2.0 and 1.0. PCIE 2.0 x16 will not be hardly any different than PCIE 3.0 x16, because the PCIE 3.0 cards do not saturate the PCIE2 lanes in a single card configuration.
