PCI Express 2.1 x16 ?

[DMGrier]

I am looking at motherboards that have slots for PCI Express 2.0 x16, will the 2.1 work with these?

All PCI-E x16 slots are backwards compatible.

All PCI-E x16 slots are backwards compatible.

Only for those with 1.1a and forward. 1.0 sometimes is not compatiable with modern GPUs.
