We'll PCI-E 2.0 or PCI-E 3.0 does NOT matter.......... will not affect performance in any way. You can use either a PCI-E 2.0 or newer PCI-E 3.0 GPU as they are also backward compatible.

Assume you want to know for adding a GPU vs the integrated graphics? Check the size of the powersupply, it's VERY likely 300 or 350watts, too small for an add on graphics card so you would need both GPU & power supply....

It comes with a PCIe 2.0 16x slot

@jb6684, yes I am. I am looking to purchase a geforce GTX 650 2gb and a 500 watt power supply to support it.
