Hi Guys,

Can anyone confirm if the GTX 690 will work on a PCIe2.0 Board please?

Thanks

I thought this would explain it:

Bus Type: PCI-Express GEN 3.0 (Backwards compatible)

I think you might be waiting forever that.

Why not just grab 2x670 or 2x7950 instead? Can get 2x670 for £460 or 2x7950 at £350. Overclock them and they'll both end up faster than a 690.
