Will it underpreform that much??

I want to buy an ssd to be more exact the 850 evo.However the ssd has a sata 3 6g/s and my motherboard has sata 2 3g/s will it underpreform if yes how much

Yes it will underperform. It will be half the performance for the sequential transfers (large files), but will be quicker than the hard drive for everyday tasks.

But the hardrive can only read and write only 500mb/s so 3g/s is enough right?Why will it underpreform?

Sata 3 SSDs, like the 850 evo are capable of utilizing fully 6 GigaBits/s that the Sata 3 interface is capable of, which translates to about 550 MegyBytes / s.

 

Your motherboard can provide only 3 GigaBits / s, which is only half of what the SSD need to reach its full speed.

 

The point is that SSDs only reach their full speed when transferring large files, which is probably not something you do all that often. Most of the data transfer are small, random files which don't require full sata bandwidth. For these SSDs do about 30-50 MB/s, whereas hard drives do only 2-5 MB/s.

Don't worry too much about sequential speeds. The random read/write speeds are virtually unchanged between the two SATA interfaces, and you will see that benefit to it's fullest in system responsiveness.
