In fact there are a huge variety of PCI Express video cards. If you plan on looking at some or even buying them, go to tigerdirect.com, click on PC Parts at the top, scroll down and click on PCI Express for video cards. I'm am most sure that this will be very helpful.
The types of PCI boards: PCI - Express x16, PCI- Express x1, AGP, PCI boards. PCI boards have 2 types of slots, 32-bit slot and 64 bit slot. 32-bit slot (3.3v and 5.0v), for 64 bit (3.3v and 5.0v). 64bit slots are longer than 32 bit slots. However a 32 bits slot can be used in a 64 bit slot.
Pci. Pci-e
No. It won't fit, and the wiring and data signals are completely different. Regular PCI is a parallel format, while PCI Express is a serial format.
A pci and a pci-e are different ports. I would say no for sure. http://www.whatthetech.com/2007/11/10/can-pci-express-graphic-card-work-in-pci-slots/
True PCI Express is about the same design but uses the address more quickly it is alot faster. It is Diffrent that PCIe witch Stands for PCI express as well just not true. Easier explaination is: PCI is V1 PCI Express or PCIe is V2 True PCI Express or True PCIe is like V2.5 Its just PICe but working therodicly correctly
Yes PCI express 2.1 is backwards compatible
PCI Express currently comes in four different slot sizes; the longest size (PCI Express x16) and the shortest size (PCI Express x1) There are also The accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) and also Industry Standard Architecture. (ISA) :-)
PCI Express was created in 2004.
PCI Express 2.0 x16.
PCI , AGP and PCI Express
The PCI Express x16 is intended to ultimately replace the AGP bus along with the PCI-X and the Conventional PCI.
You cannot use a 2.0 pci express card in a pci express slot because the technology is newer. For example: It would be like putting a playstation 3 game into a playstation 2 console.
