PCI stands for Personal Computer Interface, and it is the current standard for most types of non-video expansion ability in computers. The cards themselves allow you to expand the operations of your computer; for example, adding more hard drives, better sound output, and extra USB ports. The cards connect to the motherboard through built in slots and have a direct path to the processor.
PCI card allows you watch the satellite tv on your PC. it's HD , you need open your computer case and insert the PCI tv card into the PCI slot. then you can download the driver and kernel. you can enjoy the cable TV on your PC.

A PCI device is a device that uses the PCI bus. This can be an electromechanical connection (via a PCI slot) or only electrical (built into the motherboard).
PCI cards are devices that are connected to a computer via a PCI slot.
physical cell id
to provide a medium to expand the capabilities of the PC, by adding like modems cards, audio cards, ethernet cards.
Graphics Cards and Sound Cards If you mean interfaces, Then APG, PCI and PCI-E
That depends on which PCI slot Standard PCI slots are used by sound cards, network adapters, USB expansion cards and some video cards Some sound cards, network adapters and Wi-Fi cards use PCI Express x1 PCI Express x16 is strictly for video
No, PCI Cards will not fit on PCI-E slots
PCI , AGP and PCI Express
No.No PC Express Cards are not interchangeable With PC Cards.PC express cards have new technology than PC cards.But you can easily get an adaptor or converter to allow you to use PC express card as a simple PC card.
Graphics cards do not typically function in this manner. While cards can, in some instances (using SLI or CrossFire), share resources, the memory address spaces are kept separate, and the GPU workload is simply divided. This is also dependent on the game software itself. Also, neither of the two methods for connecting cards in the aforementioned scenario work on AGP or PCI buses, but only on PCI-E buses.
sounds cards, tv tuners, and older graphics cards use PCI slots
Its not mini PCI, its just PCI, they just look mini compared to a PCI-E. It depends on which PCI slot it is, there are tons of different cards that are for PCI. Sound, wireless, modem. Look at the spec's for the motherboard to see what slots you have, then you know what cards you can use.
Only if the motherboard has a PCI slot.
All pci X16 2.0 cards are backward compatible.
The PCI Ports on a motherboard or Peripheral Component Interconnects, are used to support expansion cards added to a machine. These had been created in 1993 and became a popular alternative (and much faster) then ISA or EISA which has, up until the early nineties, been the prevailing common port for expansion. You would use it currently for items such as modems, network interface cards, low-end graphics cards or Sound cards of an older type. PCI Is currently being phased out for PCI Express which is much faster and has more capacity.
