Old MB - New Video Card - Should I do it?

$

I got the new Call of Duty and it is saying I need to upgrade my video card. I do not want to buy a new system just to play a PC game. Well, i want to, i just cannot afford to, ya know?

 

I have a 4 or 5 yr old HP Pavilion p6367c Desktop PC with a Pegatron Eureka 3 motherboard. I bought an EVGA Geforce GT740 4GB GDDR5 without thinking if it would be supported on my computer. Yes I am that dumb.

 

O/S: Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit

 

HP would not let me put the link to my motherboard specs.

 

It has

  • One PCI Express x16 graphics (for a graphics card)
  • Three PCI Express x1 (for cards such as network, sound, tv-tuner)

 

Will the PCI Express x16 support the newer PCI Express 3.0? or is this like puttin glipstick on a pig?

 

Thank you for reading this.

 

Rod
