Hey guys,
I'm not quite at the point where I want to build a whole new system, but I've been thinking of upgrading my video card. I have an Asus Rampage III Extreme motherboard (Intel X58 chipset). It has a PCIe 2.0 x16 slot and I am presently using an EVGA GeForce GTX 460 1GB. I do not run multiple displays or SLI at all. I'm considering purchasing an EVGA GeForce GTX 660Ti 2GB (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130809), which is a PCIe 3.0 card.
From my own limited online research of a few hardware forums, this card will function in my PCIe 2.0 slot without any perceptible performance degradation. Can anyone confirm or deny this from their own setup or knowledge? If it actually works, it would be great because my next build will probably include a motherboard with a PCIe 3.0 slot and I could just transfer the card.
