hi im a noob at pc building so dont judge my commentary is this motherboard Pci express x16 2.0?

Yes it is! I currently have a gtx 1080 on there

I've been looking through the asus motherboards as I am about to build my first pc and I looked at the prime and tuf motherboards and it got me thinking, how many fan headers does this strix motherboard have?

Not sure but i have 5 fans connected rn

I'm kind of new to buying motherboards, can anyone tell me what the maximum capacity really means in the overview? Is that the limit of MHz for RAM? Or am I overthinking it, because I'm thinking of getting 16gb of RAM at 3200 MHz.

Maximum RAM MHz allowed is 2400MHz. Your 3200MHz is compatible, but will only put out 2400MHz of speed. If you want the full 3200MHz, you may have to look into a Z170/270 motherboard or an x99 motherboard if you're using a 6-core CPU
