Can I use a PCI Express 2.0 x16 video card on my PCI Express x16 mother-board ?...I have Dual NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT SLI Enabled video cards...and im looking to up-grade my video cards|||2.0 video cards will take advantage of the double bandwidth used in 2.0 pci-e slots.
Any PCI Express card will work in any PCI Express slot, given that the physical dimensions match.|||Most PCIe x16 slots are version 2.0, and your graphics card certainly is a PCIe x16 2.0 card.
So you can use your 8600 GT.
Some cards use the newer version (PCIe x16 2.1), but they will work with the older and more common version 2.0 slots as well.
