asus b75-m/csm PCIe 3.0?

[Nm156x]

So this mobo uses the intel b75 chipset, ark says the b75 chipset can handle PCIe 2.0, Asus spec sheet says "PCIe 3.0 READY".....

Any clarification from people in the know? With a i5-3570k, GTX 760, and ASUS b75-m/csm, will I be getting my PCIe 3.0 love and sharing the 4000 onboard with the lucid mvp that the mobo came with?

Thanks

Steve

It means you can plug a pcie 3.0 video card into it. Currently, graphics cards cant even make use of what pcie 3.0 provides, so you dont really see any change in performance if you put it into a 3.0 slot or a 2.0 slot.

So when the cpu, graphics card, and motherboard say its pcie 3.0....they are all just kidding? I am a little confused...

its more like they are cars that can't drive faster than 40 MPH on a 65 MPH speed limit highway
