I currently have an ASUS P8 Z68 V-PRO and have the opportunity to sell this board and system to someone as ASUS has come out with the P8 Z68 GEN 3 boards with PCI-E 3.0 now.
So what's the deal with PCI-E 3.0? Will it really impact my long term ability to upgrade or are the benefits not even tangible right now or for the near future (lets say 12 months).
Should I bother? It's quite an expensive leap to the GEN 3 board. (If I sell this 2500K & Z68 V-Pro, I'd probably get the GEN 3 and a 2600K).
