Hello All,
I recently bought a new desktop and am looking to replace the GPU in it. According to hardware diagnosis from an application I downloaded, my motherboard has a PCI-E 2.0x1 port. I don't know much about pci-e and was wondering if I could use a newer, PCI-E 3.0 card on my 2.0 motherboard. Also does the x1 matter, can the card i buy be x16?
Thanks in advance
