unlikely pci-e1.0 had compatibility issues with 2.0. pci-e
1.1 was a slight modification the the original standard this upgrade made it compatible with 2.0 and 2.1
it should also in theory be able to handle pci-e 3.0(never tested it as i got rid of my last pci-1.1 board about 5 years ago).
so the answer is probably no im afraid.
