I think itãmeans it should work since PCIe versions are supposed to be intercompatible andãyou can certainly fit a x 8 card in a x 16 slot.ããChances are your computer is using PCIe2 (which matches the card) but even ifãit isn't, it should work. Just keep in mind that if the computer has a lowerãgrade PCie spec , the gpu will work faster than the computer bus and thereforeãyou will be wasting money.ãã--ã
