What is the difference between a PCI card and PCI Express?

PCI-X is an extension to the original PCI slot. It uses a 64-bit data bus (most but not all PCI slots are 32-bit) and runs much faster than PCI (PCI runs at 33 or 66 MHz, PCI-X ranges from 66 MHz to 533 MHz). PCI cards can be used in a PCI-X slot, and most PCI-X cards will run in a PCI slot.PCI-E (PCI Express) is a totally different architecture. The connectors are similar, but PCI-E is a serialized bus, whereas PCI and PCI-X was parallelized. In PCI-E, there are fewer data paths but the paths run much faster. Think of it as the difference between a six lane highway with a speed limit of 35 MPH vs. a two lane highway with a speed limit of 75 MPH.


Will a PCI Express graphics card work in a PCI-X slot?

NO. If you have a pci-x slot, probably it is a server, and you want to upgrade your graphics card, you can buy a PCI card and plug it into your PCI-X slot. It should work probably.
