M maneeshthegamer Honorable Mar 22, 2012 64 0 10,640 Mar 31, 2012 #1 I just bought ATI Radeon HD 5670 1gb ddr3. My motherboard is a GIGABYTE G31M-S2L with intel c2d e7300 2.66 ghz and 2 gb ram. I just found out that my mobo supports pci express x16 v1. Therefore will this pcie 2.1 card work on pcie 1.0?
