As far as I can see on the board, there are no revision number next to the board name, so I assume its the original version. When you say about Sandybridge supporting 2.0 cards, are you talking about the PCI-E generation? I'll take a look at the GTX960 as you suggest, but isn't that a generation 3 card as well? I don't mind it not running at PCI-E 3 as I've only got a single GPU setup, I'm just checking that this will be compatible before I buy it?
