hey everyone, im about 2 weeks away from ordering my parts (going to do it like first day of summer....june 10th for me)
so anyways, i was looking at a mobo - cput combo that looked like a good deal... but i was looking at the PCI slots, and it was really weird... combo below
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.190732
but the PCI slots on the mobo say some really weird stuff.... and idk if my graphics card (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814133270 PCIe 2.0 x 16) will work in it
heres what it says about the PCI slots....
1 x PCI Express x16 slots, running at x16 (PCIEX16_1)
1 x PCI Express x16 slots, running at x8 (PCIEX8_1)
For optimum performance, if only one PCI Express graphics card is installed, be sure to install it in the PCIEX16_1 slot. The PCIEX8_1 slot shares bandwidth with the PCIEX16_1 slot. When PCIEX8_1 is populated with a PCI Express graphics card, the PCIEX16_1 slot will operate at up to x8 mode.
if it DOES work with my gpu, ill probably get that combo.... the gigabyte one has a better north and south chipset.... plus the FSB speeds are the same
heres the one i am currently looking at: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131381
thanks for your help =]
