Go to solution Solved by 79wjd,

On newegg.ca for any am3+ motherboards that support AMD FX series CPUs seem to only have PCI express 2.0. Now I'm wondering is this a mistake made by newegg or do all the FX motherboards actually only have PCIe 2.0?

Not a mistake. 

 

They're approaching three years old and do not support the PCIe 3.0 standard. Not that it matters, PCIe 2.0 wont bottleneck any card.

Unless you use more than one card.
