I've looked up your motherboard you should be fine- PCIE is backward compatible- the only issue for installing new graphics cards into old motherboards is that some new graphics cards will only work on motherboards with UEFI bios support. These are usually AMD Radeon cards though, and looking up your motherboard it does have a UEFI bios so you should be good. The only thing I would say is it might be worth making sure your motherboard bios is updated to the latest version, just to make sure, as some earlier motherboards had a UEFI mode added in an update.
