Title says it all. I bought a used quad port intel network card off ebay and the computer i bought it for is having hardware issues. So i can't verify if the card works or not. I have another PC but with only PCI-E 2.0 slots. Will the card work in the 2.0 slots?
 
Yes it will work.

Just to confirm, it's pci express NOT PCI-X. They are different and it wont work.

PCI Express, on the other hand will. A PCIe x1 card will fit in any PCIe slot.
