What Type Is This?

Hardware Hub Motherboards

Hi,

I have a really old computer about 3-5 years old and I want to install a GPU to get multiple monitors, between 2-3 to be exact.

I'm good with PC's but I'm a consol gamer wanting to move to PC gaming in the near future (Not with my current build tho) so I don't know much about GPU's, My question is that my motherboard has a connection labeled PCI-Express but I want to know which type so that I can buy a graphics card to fit and what I need to look for to know if it's compatable with my current system...

 

Thanks in advance.

PCI-Express
