hey guys this is my second time here.. and i really apritiate the response i had got last time ..
so my prob is i wanna upgrade my graphics card for a high end gaming performance(1080p).. but i had a damn mother board which is pulling my legs to spent a lot on a gfx card because it supports pcie 2.0 and has a b75 chipset except the latest z77 out there in the market for lga 1155... so i have the money to buy a gtx 770.. but i'm really confused that if the mobo will be able to handle such a high end card.. so i'm planning now to get a gtx 760 which is also a good performer and a z77 mobo for me.. so which is is the best decision to go with guys?
pls hlp me out to get rid of this confusion,,
thanks in advance

Linus has proven that a premium motherboard or the chipset will not give you a big increase in performance than a non-premium one.

He has proven that PCI-e 2.0 really decreases performance, but it's not noticeable, like 1-4 fps drop.

But if you want for more features, of course a premium one will provide you more
