    But I don't know if my graphics card will accept PCI-E 2.0 as I only have small knowledge of this area of hardware.

    This is my motherboard.

    I know it takes the normal PCI-E x16 because I have one in at the moment, but don't know if it will take the PCI-E 2.0 x16 faster ones.

    PCI-E is forwards and backwards compatible. Your main problem may be ordering the cards as the page seems to be down.

    Lol, the page is down? Ah well I'll place my order for the PCI-E 2.0 tomorrow morning. I still have to wait as it is as it's not in stock so not that big of a deal.
