[SOLVED] GTX 1650 Super in a PCIe 2.0 slot?

[EmmanuelHB]

Hi, I have a question, I have a motherboard with pci express 2.0 and I want to buy the 1650Super but I don't know if it will work or so to speak the exact model of my motherboard is h81mlv3, I hope a positive response

Yes, a PCIe 3.0 GPU will work in a PCIe 2.0 slot.

The 1650 Super is PCIe 4.0 and many users have reported compatibility problems with older motherboards.

Thanks, I hadn't noticed that (didn't check it's specs).

In that case Emanuell, you most likely won't be able to use that GPU in a PCIe 2.0 slot. It would probably work in a PCIe 3.0 slot but PCIe 2.0 slot could be a problem.

No nliwilson , GTX 1650 Super is a PCIe 3.0 card ( check specs ). So Like Phillip Corcoran said, a PCIe 3.0 card will work in one version below PCIe 2.0 x16 slot.

Yep, looks like you’re right. Don’t trust reviewers for spec‘s I guess.
