Thats based purely off of what has been stated here and the pic. I don't think its a power issue, if it were I would expect the box to be bouncing or similiar.

the motherboard doesn't have to be 2.0 compliant. 2.0 cards will backclock to X16 speeds. my motherboard is only X16 and i have a 2.0 card in mine. i know others with similar systems like his with 2.0 cards.
