So then the card doesnt actually require a 2.0 slot?

Whats the actual advantage of having a PCI express 2.0. Would it just make the card run faster?

Right now i'm using a 7950 GT, so not very good.

What would be the best way to overclock my CPU, i've been looking at that but I haven't found an easy to use program yet.

Well right now I have 2gb of ram.

What card should i get then for around $200 that would work with my current specs.

Right now I have that motherboard, an E6300 processor and an Nvidia Geforce 7950 GT

Right now I'm looking at what I can upgrade to get the biggest increase in speed. Would upgrading my CPU or would upgrading my graphics card get me the biggest speed? Also, what would you recommend I get with a limited budget ($200-$300)?

If I bought a new motherboard for the E8200 would i get a good increase in speed, or should I be looking at a different processor.

Basically, is there any processor near the $200 dollar range that I could buy and see an increase in speed?

I have an Intel DG965OT

So i have no idea what it supports right now.
