Hi Guys,
I have the Gigabyte GA-X48T-DQ6 motherboard and need to upgrade my graphics card to play battlefield 3. I am looking at the Radeon HD 6970 but was not sure if this card should run on my motherboard? I currently have two Radeon HD 4850 in crossfire.
I see that the 6970 mentions PCI-E 2.1 but my mobo only has PCI-E 2.0. Reading a little about this it seems that this shouldnt be a problem?
I can provide more system details if required (currently at work or I would supply them anyway) if they are needed. I intend to build a new system at some point, so I am willing to pay for this card with the intention of using it in the new build at a later date.
Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks
Martyn
