What this means is that you have 3 PCI Express slots that will use only 1 lane of memory on your CPU, and 1 slot that will use 16 lanes (better). CPUs do have a limit, but most people rarely if ever hit that limit. Almost all graphics cards use the x16 slot.

Please give us full system specs as the connections alone will not dictate which GPU is best for you.

Just list out what all of your components are. Motherboard, CPU, RAM, Power Supply, etc.

I would think that a NVIDIA 1050 would probably be a good graphics card for you, but the PSU is a little on the weak side. I would recommend upgrading that to at least 400 watts to be safe.
