What else can I help you with?
What might the purpose be for a SATA-style power connector ona motherbord?
Is to supply additional power for PCIe video cards Original answer SATA data cables. To provide additional wattage for PCIe video cards
What is the function of AGP video?
to be older and gayer than pcie
PCIE?
connector
What device uses the 12 8-pin power connector?
PCIe 16x Video Card
Video cards for computers today are normally installed in which bus expansion slot?
normally the PCIE slot
How do you identify pci and pcie video cards?
Read the manual, search for the card online, or check the connector.
What device uses the 12V 6-pin power connector?
A PCI Express, Version 1 high-end video card using PCIe x16 slots.
What is the difference between PCI express and PCI express 2.0?
New cards that support PCIe 2.0 are backward compatible with PCIe 1.1, thus you can install latest PCIe 2.0 cards on x16 PCIe slot of current or older motherboards. Latest PCIe 2.0 standards offer double the bandwidth of current PCIe 1.1 standards. The majority of single graphics cards are yet fast enough to fully take advantage of the wider bandwidth of PCIe 2.0. It is the multi-GPU or the multi-card set up that benefit most from PCIe 2.0. PCIe 2.0 and PCIe 1.1 use the x16 PCIe slot format but the PCIe 2.0 slot is capable of sustaining 150 watts while the PCIe 1.1 slot is only capable of 75 watts max. PCIe 3.0 is electrically compatible with previous generations but uses a different encoding scheme to increase the throughput.
Will a PCI Express x1 WiFi card work on a motherboard that has a PCI Express x16 slot?
I believe so. I am researching that atm. I found that if you have an older sli mobo, and you use only one pcie video card, then the mobo might just turn off the 2nd pcie slot. But say you have onboard video and you need to use the 1 pcie slot for like a controller card, or NIC. I have a server with a pcie x16 slot. I am about to put a x1 sata controller in there. So wish me luck!
Does PCIe tripled the frequency of the PCIe bus?
yes it does
How do you find out if your computer uses a PCIe or PCIe 2.0?
The easiest way to do this is to look at your motherboard's specification sheet. If you have a video card plugged into the port in question, using GPU-z to determine the ports revision and speed is also possible.
Will a PCI Express video card work on an agp motherboard that has PCI slot?
no. only on a pcie slot. buy a mainboard with such
