HI
I have a low end mother board ASUS P5QPL-AM http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Intel_Socket_775/P5QPLAM/#specifications
I thought it has x16 2.0 but unfortunately it has PCIx16 1.1 slot. Now, i want to purchase a new graphic card, i'm planning to buy GTX 550TI which is less power consuming, fast and within my budget but problem is my motherboard doesn't have pcix16 2.0 slot. So, i would like to know how GTX 550ti will perform on my motherboard which has PCI-e x16 slot? How much memory bandwidth will it get from GTX 550 TI? Should i buy it or it will be wastage of money for me in this situation? Please help
Thankyou
