Just ordered this Gigabyte mobo..

Newegg.com - GIGABYTE GA-MA790GP-DS4H AM2+/AM2 AMD 790GX HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard - AMD Motherboards


Says the PCI-E runs at x8 :/ but ill be running a 2.0 x16 ati 4870 will it reflect my performance any?

No. current cards can hardly use the bandwidth provided by pci-e so you're fine.

Since its PCI-Express 2.0 the 8.0x is 16x anyways.

Since PCI-E 2.0 doubles the bandwidth.

At least that's how I see it.
