It should work without a hitch. The issues for 2.1 were the older 1.0/1.1 boards. 2.0 is fine.
Make sure your PSU is up to the task of powering the video card. I assume it will as 4870 was top end in its day. but double check. to be sure.

ASRock A780GXE is my mother board. I currently have a ATI 4870 video card and want to upgrade it to a AMD 6870. Pc express 2.0 to 2.1 card. Will this upgrade work in this motherboard?
