GTX 1050 TI + Asus M5A78L LE Compatibility

[language.mads]

Hey there, I'm planning to order a GTX 1050TI graphics card but I have some doubts that if my old motherboard ( Asus M5A78L LE ) is compatible with GTX 1050TI or not. As far as I know my motherboard has 1x PCIe 2.0 x16 socket. But 1050TI Graphics card is for PCIe 3.0 I suppose. Can I use that graphic card with my motherboard? thank you.

Yes you can and the slot won't slow down the card , it's compatible.

PCIE 2.0 vs 3.0

No loss in performance.
