As you may have read i'm looking into buying a new video card. i was reccommended an 8800GT. i checked the specifications on the interface and saw on newegg that its PCI-E 2.0. I checked my mobo and saw that mine supports PCI-E X16. I did not see a PCI-E 2.O slot. I feel abit confused with this as i looked at both cards connectors and they looked very similar if not the same. Could someone explain what the difference is in these two? I'm assuming that PCI-E 2.0 is the newest one out, and possibly my mobo does not support it. If i am correct then maybe i cannot install an 8800GT and an 8600GT would be the max for me?
