Hello, i dont know if this is right place to ask this but i want to buy evga sc gtx 1060 3gb. Many people say that it is compatible with pci-e 2.0x16 but the seller on amazon says that it is not pci-e 2.0 compatible and i'm confused now. I need a reply asap. Thank you.

It's 100% compatible with 2.0 and no loss in performance using the 2.0 slot with he card.

Wow, that was a quick reply. Thank you very much. But why did the amazon seller say that it is not compatible?

Evidently not informed.

They don't know what they're talking about. All PCIe revisions are forward/backward compatible. You will only get the bandwidth of PCIe 2.0, but it's still enough that performance won't be affected.

A lot of Amazon Sellers , just sell and don't really know their products , better to come here and ask.
