New video card

I would like to upgrade to this video card. will it work with my moterboard?



Mother board MSI MS-7191 v1.x Micro-ATX Mainboard
CPU x86 Family 15 Model 47 Stepping 2 AuthenticAMD ~1994 Mhz
Radeon X300 video card
300 watt power supply
Mother board has one PCI Express x 16 and 3 32 bit PCI slots


Diamond ATI Radeon 3870 Video Card (PCI-E, 512MB)
Cooler Master's Real Power Pro RS-650-ACAA-A1 PSU

Also, will a PCI E 2 fit in a PCI E 16 slot?

Thanks for helping out

Re: New video card

Thanks for checking it out, will a PCI E 16 slot handle a PCI E 2 card?
