PCIE 2.0 x16 or PCIE x16?

ASRock N68PV-GS AM2+/AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 7050 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard

I can't tell if this mobo is compatable with PCIE 2.0 x16 or not? How do I find out?

Don't believe so newegg dosen't state it has any pci-express 2.0 slots.

No I dont think it is a PCIe 2.0 board. With onboard the Nvidia 8000 series chipset boards are 2.0 and there non onboard 750a/780a series chipsets

alright cool, that is good to know So what would be the best graphics card I could get for it then?

You can get an pci-express 2.0 card if you wish its backwards compatible.

So out of these four:

Which would fit best with this mobo?

Also:
Wouldn't the backwards compatibility cause the graphics card to slow down to equal a lesser card? If so by how much?

I would get either the EVGA or one of the XFX cards.

No you wont tell any difference running a 9600GSO on a PCIe 1.0 board.

It wont slow too much

Im running my GTX 295 on a PCIx16 1.0.

Im hitting 150 frames on CoD4 (Creek), and thats the most graphics intensive stage. Im getting the same on all ghillied up.

Not bad. But my biggest bottleneck is my CPU
