I have a MSI K9N SLi V2 MB. At this time it is running 2 9800gts in SLi. I built this PC about 5yrs ago, and has run just about all the games I put on it just fine, till now. One of the video cards is crapping out. I got a geforce gtx 760 from newegg. My board has pcie 1.0. I saw a video online that said it will run fine in 1.0, but the docs show only 2.0 and up. Oh, and no, I'm not trying to run the 760 and 9800 in SLi. I'm trying to upgrade from the 9800s to the GTX 760. Will it work ok on my board? It has a 2.5 Phenom quad and 4gb ram.
