Will a PCI-E work in this Mobo?

[quackerww]

I have this Motherboard.
http://usa.asus.com/products.a...model=1160&modelmenu=2

It has a 2X PCI-E 1X slot in it.

My Video card broke tonight...
I was looking at newegg and was wondering if a pci-e 2.0 will run in my board, before I spend the money... Thanks.

Your what broke? Ability to communicate an idea in English on a text-based forum which cannot read your mind?

I'm guessing you're talking about your video card, and it has been beat to death that for the majority of cases PCI-e 2.0 cards will work just fine in PCI-e 1.0/1.1 slots. AFAIK some older Intel and AMD chipsets would have issues, but I doubt an AM2 socket mobo will.

I don't know why you're bringing up the fact that the mobo has two PCI-e x1 slots and really you should clarify what broke tonight as well as whatever you're referring to with "PCI-e 2.0" as an adjective. Thank you for using the English language, and enjoy your flight.

alkalinetaupehat gave you the answer, while simultaneously blowing his own superiority horn. Just take the good info, and ignore the wrong side of the bed jargon. :thumbsup:
