Graphics card question

Hi there. I am looking to upgrade my graphics card. I have a 7800 GTX atm, and am looking into buying this.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130370

 

My motherboard however does not support PCI express 2.0. Just 1.0 apparently.

 

My question is, can i still use the card? Or do i need to get a motherboard that supports PCI express 2.0?

Thanks!!

    It will work. You are also better off getting a 4870 over that.
