PCI Express v1.0 or v1.1 Motherboard???

[patrickcampbe21]

I recently started having graphic card issues with my "XFX PVT71UZDF9 Geforce 7950x2 1GB 512-bit (256-bitx2) GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Xtreme HDCP video card" on my "ASUS A8N-SLI 939 NVIDIA nForce4 SLI ATX AMD motherboard" I reverted back to my old RADEON 9250 for now. After finding out that my graphic card wasn't under warranty I figured it would just be more cost effective to just get a new one since its over 2.5 years old. After some research I found some good graphic cards that are PCI Express 2.0, not sure what the difference was so I wiki PCI-E 2.0 to learn more. I know that 2.0 graphic cards are backwards compatible up to 1.1, however I don't know if my motherboard is PCI-E v1.0 or v1.1. I tried checking the specs of my motherboard but it doesn't say anything dealing with version. Is there some way for me to find out?

It will work fine.
Just be aware that many of the newer cards have newer power connections.
