Yes, the card is PCI-E 3 and the mobo is PCI-E 2, but the cards are backward compatible and you won't see any degradation :)  Just throwing it out as might be some that will complain about the difference

Just make sure you have appropriate PSU cables and power

Here is Guru3D's power supply recommendation:

GeForce GTX 760 - On your average system the card requires you to have a 550 Watt power supply unit.
GeForce GTX 760 SLI - On your average system the card requires you to have a 700 Watt power supply unit.

If you are going to overclock GPU or processor, then we do recommend you purchase something with a bit more stamina.
