Default PCIe x16 and 2.0

I have a this mobo http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813131172

and I want to know if a PCIe x16 2.0 card will work with it? So the basic question is a 2.0 card backwards capatiable with the orginal mobo's?

Yes PCI-E 2.0 is backwards compatible.

The first chipset with PCI express 2.0 support already appeared in sale. Video card with PCI express 2.0 interface on base of g92 chips and RV670 will be available soon . Certainly, many already ask this question : will the passage to this interface give a noticeable speed increase ?

Associates have their opinion, formed on base of the seen demonstration system with PCI express 2.0 support . First , all video card series radeon HD 2600 and Radeon HD 2400 on base of RV630 and RV610 chips originally support PCI express 2.0. Associates assert that they saw a working system with PCI express 2.0 support , where the video card series radeon HD 2600/2400 showed a speed increase in separate tests, which intensively load the system bus - for example 3DMark'06.

Average speed increase compose 10%. In crossFire regime the increase will be higher . Video card with support to the functions hyperMemory and TurboCache Will also win from the passage on PCI express 2.0 .

During January 2008 , AMD will release the RV635 and RV620 chips , which will propose official support to PCI express 2.0 and DirectX 10.1, and also they will use a more contemporary 55 nm technical process. Perhaps, video card on base of these chips are better suitable for systems with PCI express 2.0 support .

I said this in another thread and ill say it again

PCIe 2.0 doubles the bus standard's bandwidth from 2.5 Gbit/s to 5 Gbit/s, meaning a x32 connector can transfer data at up to 16 GB/s in each direction.

PCIe 2.0 is completely backwards compatible with PCIe v1.x. Graphic cards and motherboards designed for v2.0 will be able to work with v1.1 and v1.0, and vice versa.

There was a recent benchmark between the P45 and X38/48 motherboards. There was up to 15% performance differences during CrossFire. While this doesn't make that much of an impact, when you only have a few FPS at high resolutions, there will be a noticeable difference between the two slot types.
