PCIe x16 - 2.0 vs. 3.0 Slots | Tested in 4 Games @ 1440p | GTX 1070

You are an idiot.

Pcie 1.0 is worst

The graphic cards PCIe 3.0 are compatible with the PCIe 2.0 Motherboards?

no different . do not waste money for more fps

Thumbs down, no integrity, no due diligence, no respect to the viewers or their time. DONT WATCH THIS, 2 DIFFERENT CPUs WERE USED, RESULTS ARE INCONCLUSIVE!!!
THIS TEST IS CONTAMINATED, AND ANY OBSERVATIONS ARE CONSEQUENTLY INVALID!
DO NOT TAKE AWAY ANY CONCLUSION FROM THIS!!

At games like WWE 2k ...
There also difference between them

My Pcie 3.0 x16 is gone so I have to use a 2.0 x16

interesting... but you are CU bound, can't really showcase the true power of PCIe 3

I could really use your advice, sage, wisdom & experience! I have a pc using a gigibyte GA-970A-DS3P motherboard. I just bought a newer faster graphics card, but I didn't realize that my PCI express is 2.0 and the graphics card is a 3.0. Will I notice a difference in quality or performance? Is it worth upgrading my motherboard at this time? If you think I should replace/upgrade my motherboard, what would you recommend? The form factor for my existing motherboard is: ATX Form Factor; 30.5cm x 21.5cm. I am not an online video gamer. I play a few games from Steam... nothing exotic. Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Pcle 3.0 graphics card

So if motherboard has 2.0 pci and graphics card have 3.0 pci thay steel work no problem ?

Can I use RTX 2060 or till RTX 2080 on a MSI motherboard that has only PCIE GEN 2.0?

Endingnya dicomot Gaptech wkwkwk

I7 4790k vs i7 2700k HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!. Fuck you

i5 4th gen is PCI e2.0

different cpus lmao, such a big brain

H110 is 2nd gen, b150 3rd gen.
Try to use poor i3 cpu + high end of graphic card..
its fairplay!

I have ivy Bridge processor coming soon so my graphics card will run more powerfully for games like cod cold war, or assassins creed, it seems if you have pcie3 your system uses less resources like ram or processing but enhances gpu resources.

If I game ran with that low fps, I wouldn't play it without adjusting

Funcionara con una rtx 3060?

help me a lot

Excellent video ! Just than I needed. Regards !

Si mi placa es 2.0 y mi tarjeta gráfica es 3.0 igual puede funcionar ? Alguien que me ayude con el tema porfavor 🙏

I switched from 2.0 x16 to 3.0 x16 today and I'm getting 60% more fps, it's ridiculous.

Hi, guys can i ask if a pcie 3.0 gpu will be compatible with a pcie 2.0 mobo
Please reply ASAP

Wao, i have a 2.0 mother board and was wondering if i had to get an old Graphics card, thanks to this i now know it doesn't matter lol, looks good on both sides

I did not know there were DDR4 mobos that still have pcie 2.0 in them

motherboard ddr4 with pc express 2.0 hummmm

My gt 1030 gets only 20 25 fps on witcher 3 medium 720p on pcie 1.1 but when I put on pcie 2.0 mobo it gets 35 40 fps same setting

Very well done this is what i was looking for

TOP VALEUUUUUUUU

Thanks

My Asus H81M-D motherboard specifications say it has
1 x PCIe x16 slot
2 x PCIe 2.0 x1 slot

What any of those even mean lol

But I've been using GTX 1070 on this motherboard for 2~ years now so idk if I should be worry about performance or not
(I'm planning to change my i5 4460 to i7 4790k and 8GB>16GB ram)
Edit:So I now know my GTX 1070 is probably installed on that one PCIe 1.0 x16 slot, is there a significant impact on performance from this?

your fps monitor showing DDR4 both? on descriptions is DDR3 both? wich one is true

Not a fair test, the Haswell has at least 10% more IPC. I've just done my own test which at the moment is inconclusive but at least I can say either the PCIe 2.0 or i5 Haswell in my Optiplex is bottlenecking the card once it's overclocked. I've got an i7 and a board with PCie 3.0 to play with later and see what happens.

I get that pcie 2 rig has less powerful cpu, which would obviously result in less fps but who would use pcie 2 (older mobo,thus older cpu socket) if they have pcie 3 mobo+cpu? Or using pcie lanes to nvme drive is akin to pcie 2?

Ddr4???? Lol.. gen5 only have ddr4 ram…

does the pci-e generation affect the gpu performance ....cause i got a lga 1155 h61 pci-e 2.0 mobo and am buying a gtx 780 ti gpu ?????

Hey I would like to know how much fps in average would drop if i used a gtx 1060 6gb in a pcie 2.0..?

Takeaway: Don't sweat it at 1440p. And the performance delta between PCIe 3.0 x16 & 2.0 x16 would be even more negligible at 1080p.

I have a Pegatron 2AC2 H61 motherboard running with an "ancient" intel Sandy Bridge i7-2700K 3.5 - 3.9 GHz CPU (no overclock), along with 2x8GB DDR3-1333 sticks of Kingston HyperX RAM (again, no overclock), running an EVGA nVidia GTX-1070 8GB Black Edition GPU in a PCIe 2.0 x16 slot, runs just great at 1080p on an HP 27wm IPS flatscreen monitor @ 75Hz. Gets a Unigine Superposition score of 3423 at 1080p Extreme setting. I'm actually thinking of upgrading to a Zotac GTX-1080 ti SC 11GB, which is competitive with an nVidia RTX-2070 8GB - (just no ray tracing - no big deal. RTX is way overrated anyway).

No es mucho la diferencia

It doesn't make me superhappy, but apparently either my mainboard or graphics card is dying, and reducing PCIe is one attempt to improve stability. Already seems to last longer, or at all. Maybe fewer lanes skips some lanes, or anything else, that are "broken". Easily beats iGPU for as long as I wait for a new system.
(I also allowed PCIe to wake up the system, in case after a simple crash the card could recover without Bluescreen, as long as it's allowed. And a couple of other, more random settings.)

Only 5 fps -__-

la diferencia son 5fps 🤣

The only difference you are seeing is between the 2 platforms. You need the same CPU to test this properly.

Buena la info quiero meterle una grafica a un equipo viejo que se resiste a morir XD!, me encanta la musica electronica.

Not too significant

I habe seen other benchmarks videos and they mostly show 0 differnece between 2.0 and 3.0. So your big 10% difference you show must be because of not the same system for testing...

Both the systems are using DDR3 RAM as written in the specs but in the video it shows DDR4 cuz I forgot to change the name LOL 😅😅
