I already got an ASrock Fatal1ty 970 Performance mainboard from my old(1 year old pc)
I will go to get a new cpu i think a fx 6350 or a fx8320 (oc to 4.5 ghz)
but the am3+ boards only supports pcie 2.0x16.
So now the question , will i lose much fps or does it realy doesnt matters.

Also i could go for an intel cpu+Mainboard combination like an:
-intel core i5 4690k at 4.5 ghz
-MSI Z97 GAMING 5

but the second is more expensive / when the 2.0x16 doesnt gives me a lake of performance in games
