PCIe v2.0 Compatibility Question

Hi!
It will work just fine. The card will automatically adjust its transfer rate to 1.1 x8 rate of your board.

Edit: I have assembled a system for my friend that uses the same board and PNY 8800GS card. It works fine in x8 mode as indicated by CPU-Z. He does some gaming on this system and never complains.
 
Thank you very much for your reply. Was starting to think no one would reply to me because i registered on the website to ask this question... Although and I have been a long time fan of anandtech.com, and have recently been lurking the fourms with interest.
 
Welcome to the AT forums, reparks.🙂

It's a fairly common question, so it's often not immediately answered right away due to attrition.
 
Thank you for the welcome ViRGE. I hope to become a part of the frequent user community and to learn from the experience.

Well as the Nihonjin would say.. Onegaishimasu.
