with your setup your going to be held back a bit by your aging processor and definitely by your very low amount of ram. this is obviously a store bought computer, and we dont know what power supply is in it. that said, whatever power supply is in there its very low wattage so even if you wanted you would be limited to low end graphics cards.

at best you going to use would be an nvidia gt 740 or an amd r7-250. but dont expect ps4/xbone performance out of your system. more like ps3/360 performance.

im pretty sure the g41 chipset supports pcie 2.0. at any rate....

PCIe 1.x 16x = PCIe 2.x 8x = PCIe 3.x 4x.

pcie 2.x@8x speed is usually enough for most graphic cards anyways, especially the lower tier gpus which have nowhere near the horsepower to saturate the lane. all graphics cards are backwards compatible, and it wouldn't be a meaningful bottleneck even if it is stuck at pcie 1.1

1.0 isn't interchangeable with 1.1,2.0 or 3.0

yes. its not forward compatible, but definitely backwards. its just bandwidth. pcie 1.0 on a 16x lane is equal in bandwidth to pcie 2.0 on an 8x lane. plenty of benchmarks show that pcie 2.0@8x will not hinder any known graphics card compared to pcie 3.0@16x(which is theoritically 4 times the bandwidth of 2.0@8x, and 1.0@16x.
