When I picked this motherboard and GPU out, I remember reading that it had a PCI-E 2.0 expansion slot available. Now that I looked at it again at Newegg, I cannot find anything listed about a 2.0 slot.

Will I see a performance decrease if I were to use a regular 16X PCI-E slot for my GPU rather than the PCI-E 2.0?

Alternatively, does anyone know if a PCI-E 2.0 slot is available on that mobo?

Also, I plan on overclocking my GPU and I was wondering what other people have been able to overclock their GTX 260s to while maintaining stability.
