The boards support it, but the currently available cpu's don't. Ivy bridge, the soon to be released 1155 cpu's, will support it. So it's only half a scam...

Yes, you'll have to upgrade the cpu as well...

LGA 1155 processors are made for the z77 mobos. LGA 2011 is design for the x79 mobos. This is the reason why HotRodPolk is right. You can't use a 2011 socket processor for a 1155 mobo. edit: corrected the typo on my part...

Z77 is for 1155, not 1156...

Looking at my Maximus IV Extreme board and nothing on PCI-E 3.0. Unless I'm blind...no bios update for it either. It'll support IB, but only PCI-E 2.0

The PCI-E controller is located on the CPU. http://ark.intel.com/products/52210 I've seen some PCI-E 3.0 "hacks" but I don't really know how they achieved it or if it's even legit. Ivy Bridge 1155 socket with P77/Z78 are suppose to support PCI-E 3.0
