hi i have a asus mobo: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131794 and it has a pcie lane i was wondering if it can run a pcie 3.0 card like a 7850 for example this one: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102998 if not what card of the same power can you suggest with the same or lower price point

Yes the ASUS P5G41T-M LX PLUS has one PCIe x16 slot, it's 2.0 but any HD 7000 or GTX 600 series simply runs at PCIe x16 2.0 which is perfectly fine. Though LGA 775 CPU's will bottleneck games which rely heavily on the CPU.
