Hello everyone. Now that I've finally earned some money I'm looking to upgrade my video card. I had a Nvidia GeForce GT730 in my computer (I do still currently) and am looking to upgrade to a Nvidia GTX 1050 TI. The 1050 TI says it requires a PCI Express 3.0 slot, however I've heard that slot is backwards compatible with the PCI Express 2.0, which is what my card is currently using. Will I be able to upgrade to this card? (This is the card: https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814500410 )

Thanks!
