(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); This card: You must login or register to view this content. says it is PCI Express 2.1 x16. This motherboard You must login or register to view this content. says it supports only PCI Express 2.0 x16. If it doesn't fit can someone link me to a mobo that will fit and is about the same price?

Your mobo has a PCI Express 2.0 x16 where as the card needs a PCI Express 2.1 x16.
I believe PCI slots are backwards compatible, so it should be fine.
