PCIE1.0 to PCIE 2.0
I recently bought the 280 and since my MB uses PCIE 1.0, would going to a PCIE 2.0 board make a noticable difference? If I do upgrade I'm thinking these options.

Re: PCIE1.0 to PCIE 2.0
I don't think its worth it to upgrade just for PCI-E 2.0. I don't think it really makes any difference.

Re: PCIE1.0 to PCIE 2.0
Thanks guys. I think I'll hang on to what I have at the moment and save for a "real" upgrade.
