So I'm an idiot and hope someone can help, I've tried googling but I'm not that savvy. So I have a gigabyte GA-A75M-D2H board and was looking for a card, a friend recommended the Gigabyte NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB GDDR5, So i bought one. So after the fact did I not think about it maybe not being compatible. So that's basically what I'm wondering, I know, it says it requires Pci Express 3.0 and I only have 2.0 but I do have the X16, plus I read it was backwards compatible? but aside from that I don't know, I just want to know if I just wasted money or If I can use it and if I can will I be throttled at all or will it run just as it should. Thanks very much in advance.

maybe I'm not understanding, the documentation I downloaded says "Patented DualBIOS with Hybrid EFI technology" Is the Hybrid EFI different from I guess normal EFI?

Edit. Oh ok, I guess that's what you meant by my Board supports it. Kinda understanding it.
