PCI-Express X16 Colors

Why do motherboards have different PCI-Express X16 colors ... blue, black and what does each color mean ????

And what is the difference between PCI-Express X16 1.1 and 2.0 ???

And why did they answer me that the PCI-E X16 version is 2.0, and the GPU-Z shows 1.1 ????

colors by themselves do not mean anything, they are needed only so that the m / n manufacturer can write the characteristics of a particular slot in the instructions, and the user, accordingly, can independently determine them.
PCI-Express X16 1.1 and 2.0 differ in bandwidth by exactly 2 times in favor of 2.0.

why did they tell me that the PCI-E X16 version is 2.0, and the GPU-Z shows 1.1 ????
options 3:
1. someone is driving
2. the BIOS mode is 1.1.
3. slot 2.0, and video card 1.1, or vice versa.
I'm leaning towards the 3rd option.

And what is the PCI-Express X16 slot on this motherboard ????


And how to enable 2.0 in BIOS ... ???

And how many percent of performance will I lose ... if I have PCI-Express X16 1.1 instead of 2.1 ... ??????

ASUS M2N68 AM SE2 - it only has 1.1, if you want 2.0 - change the motherboard.

And how many percent of performance will I lose ... if I have PCI-Express X16 1.1 instead of 2.1 ... ??????
you don't have to bathe, from 0 to 5%.

Once again, if I see multi-posting from you, I will slap a ban. In the meantime, I will limit myself to the LCD.

tell me which video card can be installed with a PCI-Express x16 slot to be stronger than the HD 6900 radion

by% 30-50 if there are any? RADION OR NVIDIA series only.

Sergey Liskonog
More precisely? There are 4 video cards in the hd 6900 series: 6930, 6950, 6970, 6990. The difference in performance between the youngest model and the oldest is just about 45-50%.

MunchkiN 616 10.11.21

Sergey Liskonog is
steeper than the steepest 6990, for example, in terms of absolute performance, the zhiefs 980 and 290x-380x radeon
6990 are almost 2 times steeper than the 6970. So count the pitch-pitch. plus, starting from the 6000 series, the cards do not support any new graphical technologies.
