October 14, 201213 yr Hi, I currently have an ASUS P8P67 deluxe and I would like to upgrade my Graphic card from a Nvidia N480gtx 2MB with a N680 or N670 2 MB. My MOBO has 2 PCI express 2.0, do I need to go with a MOBO equiped with PCI express 3.0. Would this give me a significant increase in performance, or I should keep my current MOBO. Thanks for any advice Pierre Pierre Nantel Asus Prime Z690-A | Intel I9-13900K | 64 Gb Corsair 2666Mhz DDR4 | 3XSamsung 960 M.2 SSD | Gigabyte RTX4090 | Win 11 | MSFS 2020-2024|

Thanks for any advice Pierre Hi, You will not need to upgrade your motherboard to a PCIe3 native board. The one you have will work fine with ANY PCIe3 GPU.
