Hi,

Are there any PCI-X (not PCI-E) graphics cards?

Are there any x8 PCI-E graphics cards, or are they all x16?

Thanks,

Michael

I had thought they were actually the same thing until I looked it up. In
case anyone is interested:

What is the difference between PCI-X 2.0 and PCIe?
PCI-X 2.0 is the latest version of the PCI parallel bus architecture. While
its performance will be far superior to PCI and its immediate successor
PCI-X, going forward many believe that this architecture has only 3-5 years
of life before the demands of the industry will force the industry to move
to PCIe.

PCI-E cards are ALL designed for x16.
