Nope, even PCIe 1x is fast enough for mining. Title: Re: old motherboard new gfx Post by: shilex on April 06, 2013, 10:04:58 AM nice that means i have a cpu motherboard and memory for mining :D

Not if you know how to clock/cool, Also depends on If you want to BTC or LTC mine? Litecoin is memory intensive, Bitcoin is GPU intensive.
