So my motherboard is:
GIGABYTE GA-X38-DS5 ChipsetIntel X38+ICH9R
PCI : 2 slots
PCI Express x1 : 3 slots
PCI Express x16 : 2 slots
For those of you who know serbian this is the site i got the info from:

Here’s a close up:

Can this motherboard support a ASUS GeForce GTX 460 graphics card?

I already own the motherboard just not the graphics card.
Oh, and what the blazes is a PCI-E 2.1 slot?
Answer #1
First off I hope thats not your picture because its pretty dumb to put your motherboard on the ground outside. Secondly, to answer your question, yes.
Answer #2
Thankfully no, it’s just a picture i found.Thanks for the answer but could you just explain to me why it’s called PCI-E 2.1 when the slot for it is PCI-E x16?
Answer #3
PCI-E 2.1 is current technology and is OK.

Answer #4
Well the x16 and 2.1 are describing two different things that arent related to each other. You can have a PCI-E 2.1 slot thats either 16x or 8x, or you could have a PCI-E 2.0 slot thats either 8x or 16x. One is the version number and the other is the number of lanes or chans that slot has for the card to interface with the board. Any modern card will work with any combination of those specs.
Answer #5
PCI-E 2.1 has a faster data transmission than a regular PCI-E, mainly used for graphics cards bicouse of its bandwidth.as far as your graphics card is.It’s best to go to this page and seek your motherboard manual and look at whether it supports what you are looking for or not.
