Hi, I have an asrock 960gc-gs fx and I wanted to change my gpu. Now I have an gtx 750 ti and was thinking to change it to gtx 1050/1050ti or an rx 560. Is the motherboard compatible with this gpu's . I noticed that it has only PCI 2.0 x16 and the gpu wants PCI 3.0? Is that a problem?
 
Solution
All you need to get those new GPU's is a PCI-E and since your motherboard have 1 x PCI Express 2.0 x16 then you will be fine with both GTX and RX.
Make sure that you have appropriate power pins and wont have a problem to connect new GPU to your monitor :)
PCI-E have "backwards compatibility".
