Motherboard and Video Card Conflict-Please Help I need your assistance

Motherboard and Video Card Conflict-Please Help I need your assistance
I have a issue regarding a new motherboard as well as a new video card that I have recently purchased from newegg.com. I should have read more carefully before purchasing but it seems that one of the customers who bought the motherboard I am using (MSI K9N4 Ultra-F Socket AM2 NVIDIA nForce 550 Ultra ATX AMD) had a problem with a video card with a Geforce 7900GS. The problems are PCIE Bus Issues. The video card that I have is a EVGA 256-P2-N624-AR GeForce 7900GS 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 KO Video Card.

I was wondering if anybody would help a new computer enthusiast out. Could anyone tell me what a PCIE Bus is and what issue that customer is exactly talking about. Also can you tell me if using this motherboard and video card would still be ok? Or does anyone recommend me getting a new motherboard? Anything would help.

Also on a side note my computer is primarily for gaming and so would this motherboard limit my games (the quality or speed)? Would it limit my cards potential or simply will it work just fine with no limitations at all?

Thank you very much.

I don't see where there should be any compatibility issues.

1 bad review on newegg is no reason to shy away from a product; they probably had a defective vid card, or motherboard, or an inadequate powersupply.
