Hello everybody!
I have a motherboard Intel DG41TY, it is a classic series Intel board, and here is its link: http://www.intel.com/Products/Desktop/Motherboards/DG41TY/DG41TY-overview.htm
I want to add a VGA to this board (it has integrated graphics but I do not want to use it). The graphic card that I want to add is GeForce 9500 GT and here is its link: http://www.nvidia.com/object/product_geforce_9500gt_us.html
The motherboard PCI Express revision is 1.0 (which is older than the last revision which is 2.0, although the board was released by Intel less than 1 year ago). The revision 2.0 can afford double the speed that 1.0 can afford, and here is a link for more information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express
The graphic card GeForce 9500 GT is compatible with both PCI Express revisions, the old one and the newer.
Regarding my question, will my VGA performance be affected, so if it was installed on a board with a PCI Express revision 2.0, the VGA performance will be better? In another words, does the GeForce 9500 GT needs that extra speed?
