means it can handle a 16x card, but will only operate at 4x which will result in lower bandwidth..
The sizes are x1, x4, x8 and x16. They support different bandwidth... Also x16 port might work in x8 mode only.
Depending on the make of your motherboard, and age of it. It could go in: ISA Slot (oldest) PCI Slot (old) AGP Slot (newer) PCIe (newest and recommended)Now the AGP (Advanced Graphics Port [or something like that]) had a couple variations through its life-cycle "x2 x4 x8"and the sub-families of PCIe:"x16 x8 x4 x2 x1"

I would say about 4.
No, it's not. PCI-E 1x is compatible with PCI-E x4, x8, x16. PCI-E 4x is compatible with x8, x16 and so on.
Speed. x16 would be 16 times faster. the only other difference would be the size of the slot. if its a x1 pci slot only a x1 card will fit. however if its a x16 pci slot it can fit any pci_e card. x1,x4,x8,or x16
Yes this will work, however keep in mind that PCI-e 1.0 has a data rate limit of 250MB/s , and PCI-e 2.0 has a data rate limit of 500MB/s, So using a 2.1 card in a 1.0 bus limit it's data rate, and will not utilise the card to the fullest of it's capabilities.
It is an SSD drive which you connect through your pci-e ports on your desktop's motherboard, instead of through the conventional way of SATA connecters like Hard Drives, it is to improve the speed of read and writes mainly for boot ups and also for softwares if you have a big enough drive (capacity), the pci-e ports are also used for graphics cards and have speeds and power supplies identified as x16 x8 x4 and x1, revodrive uses speed and power of x4's so anything above x4 eg, x8 or x16 slots will be compatible.
This is a kind of trick question because there are actually two graphics-only technologies. One could argue the second is only a version of a larger architecture. But, it is "A separate connector used exclusively for graphics", so I leave the semantics up to you. The short answer(s): AGP (for the purists) AGP and PCIe 16x (for the practical) The long answer: The original graphics-only architecture is Accelerated Graphics Port or AGP. AGP was created to enable video data transfer rates higher than PCI video cards. AGP technology advanced over time, resulting in four different modes: AGP 1x was the 1st, transferring data at 266MBs per second. AGP 2x transfers data at 533MBs per second. AGP 4x transfers data at 1.07GBs per second. AGP 8x, the final AGP, transferred data at a whopping 2.14GBs per second. Quite an improvement over PCI. The other graphics-only port is now in the process of replacing AGP. AND it's "back to PCI" (sort of). PCI Express x16 transfers data at 4GBs per second, effectively doubling AGP 8x. The possible controversy: PCI Express slots come in PCIe x1, x2, x4, x8, x16. All except PCIe x16 slots are used for many things. PCIe x16 is used exclusively for video cards and has its own connector.
