Z68, H67 and P67 is Ivybridge compatible. . H61 is not.

Intel® H61 Express Chipset with support for 2nd generation 'Sandy Bridge' Intel® Core™ CPUs. Not the Ivy Bridge : ))

And when it states Designed for PCI Express Gen.3 Support it means it will be able to use the HW, but it will run as PCI 2.0

This is the cheapest H67 mobo. 80$

Yes to Ivy Bridge, no to PCI 3.0

(All PCI Express slots conform to PCI Express 2.0 standard.)
Expansion Slots
PCI Express 2.0 x16 - 3 (x16, x8, x4)
PCI Express x1 - 1
