You can mine with different cards, no problem.
It has no metter if you use pci-e 3.0 or 2.0., for mining you don't need even pci-e 16x slot, it's good with 1x too, just need powered riser for that.

Can I ask, all new high end video cards for GPU mining can use 1x pci-e slots? That means it's the short connection? And all GPUs can use powered risers that fit pci-e 1x?

So I can use almost any motherboard that has a bunch of pci-e slots, because the smallest one is 1x anyway?

Yes, but use powered risers for 1x slots because we've seen a few motherboards set on fire because they weren't expecting a graphics card drawing 75w from it! Shocked

There are motherboard designed for the task though check out http://www.asrock.com/news/index.asp?cat=News&ID=1765
