could i get a new video card working

[redknight333]

My system is just over 3 years old now, just wondered if i could upgrade with a new video card in my system, it's a

Gigabyte Z68X-UD3H-GEN3 Intel Z68 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard
Intel Core i7-2600K 3.40GHz (Sandybridge) Socket LGA1155 cpu
video card is old now its a Gainward GeForce GTX 570
PSU Corsair Professional Series AX750 High Performance 750W

Am i able to use one of the newer nvidia cards with this motherboard?
Something like a GTX 970.
Because the newer cards are PCI express 3.0 and my system is running in 2.0 PCI express.

Yes you can put a better GFX card in it.

PCi-E2.0 16X is fine

You may have to update the boards BIOS to "see2 the new card.

Not been any new bios for this motherboard in years, last one was in 2013.
