I wanted to buy a Nvidia 8800GT GPU when they come on stock again, but the specs say that it has a PCI Express 2.0. As far as I know my mobo only has a PCI Express x16 v1.. Do I need to buy a mobo with PCI Express 2.0 or can I use the one I have? Oh and Merry Hanukwanzmas

The 8800GT is backward-compatable with your board. You don't need a new one for the vid card.
