    It's not essential to get a motherboard that provides both PCI-E 2.0 slots running at 16x. Even at 8x the bandwidth will not be saturated. There is no card probably that can max out a PCI-E 1.0 x16 as yet.

    No biggie.

    Thanks

    Alright. Thank you very much for your response. I look forward to building my own soon and I'll probably post back here and tell you my own experience.
