asus p61 mobo

[oswin]

i have a asus p61 mobo (p8h61-i lx r2.0) and im looking to see what gpu is best for it,
i was looking to get a gtx 1060 but im up for suggestions (im kinda new to pc building however i know the basics)

What CPU do you have at the moment?

 

[oswin]

i5-3570k (got second hand)

RX480 would be a better choice. More powerful that the 1060 (in general) and cheaper.

What power supply do you have?

 

[oswin]

i havent got 1 atm, looking to get maybe a 430w 1

would the rx480 be compatible because isnt the rx 480 a pcie 2.0 and my mobo (p8h61 r2.0) is pcie 3.0
