Hey, been in the PC space for a Month now. Checked online already but couldn't find a clear answer, so now I've come to ask you guys.

I am Upgrading my GPU to:

 

GTX 1060 6GB Zotac Amped Editon. Link: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01I5O5AP2/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza

 

And I want to make sure my Motherboard is compatible with this GPU, motherboard is:

 

ASUS® H110M-R: Micro-ATX, DDR4, LG1151, USB 3.0, SATA 6GBs. Link: https://www.amazon.co.uk/ASUS-Intel-LGA1151-Micro-ATX-Motherboard/dp/B01CZTFCQK/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1514639501&sr=1-1-fkmr0&keywords=ASUS®+H110M-R%3A+Micro-ATX%2C+DDR4%2C+LG1151%2C+USB+3.0%2C+SATA+6GBs

 

Thank you guys in advance! I'm super new to this so I appreciate the help <3

-Frequencies DON'T represent everything and in many cases that is true (referring to Individual CPU Clocks).

 

Mention me if you want to summon me sooner or later

My head on 2019 :

Note 10, S10, Samsung becomes Apple, Zen 2, 3700X, Renegade X lol

Yeah it's fine. If you had a much older MOBO you might not have had PCIe 3.0 but anything that generation will run it. Just make sure you have enough room in your case and that you have a decent PSU to run it.
