Hello all,
I have a older motherboard from a dell computer (its about 2 years old now) that has PCI support, but I wasnt sure if there were different kinds of PCI buses. When I ran SiSoft Sandra (give lots of info on your computer), it said that it supports 1x 2x and 4x for data transfer modes.
However, when I look at Sapphires new x700 pro pci, it says that it supports "the latest 16x Lane PCI Express Technology". Does that mean that it will not function with my current motherboard, or are those 2 different things. Thanks ahead!
