Will GTX560 running on 8x get significant bottleneck?

VCard : Asus GTX560 DCII OC


Just got a SATA 6Gb SSD and the motherboard requires that I use its I/O Level Up function
before I can fully utilize the SATA 6Gb port.

The function changes the PCI-E 16x slot to 8x.

Does anyone know if it would cause a significant speed reduction on my GTX560's performance?

none that is noticeable what so ever.

it should be fine

Actually, from what I've seen, PCI-E x8 is still more than enough to run a card at full speed, and needless to say, isn't enough to bottleneck it.
