950 2.0 pciex16 bottleneck or no?

[Qub]

I have an asus f2a85-m motherboard with two 2.0pciex16 slots and am upgrading to a 950 soon. I'm curious if the 2.0 slots will be an issue for the card, or at least slow performance.

No it will be fine with that.

Thanks, I'm glad to hear it

No problem whatsoever. This is on a higher performance card, and the impact is only 1%.

Thanks a bunch! Tbh I thought it would have a bigger impact but am glad this is the case.

Probably no impact at all with the 950, that card there is double the power if not more.
