GPU Upgrade

Hi,

I am thinking of upgrading my graphics card, from the AMD Radeon HD 6900 series to the 7970.

I know this is a stupid question, I just have to be sure; will my current motherboard be compatible with this new GPU, or will I have to upgrade that too? Here's the spec for the motherboard via Speccy:

I'm sure I'll be ok using my current motherboard, just thought I'd ask to be absolutely sure.
Thanks in advance,
