2. PCI Express - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express

   The increase in power from the slot breaks backward compatibility between PCI Express 2.1 cards and some older motherboards with 1.0/1.0a, but most motherboards with PCI Express 1.1 connectors are provided with a BIOS update by their manufacturers through utilities to support backward compatibility of cards with PCIe 2.1.

3. List of Intel chipsets - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_chipsets

   Intel i945GC northbridge with Pentium Dual-Core microprocessor. This article provides a list of motherboard chipsets made by Intel, divided into three main categories: those that use the PCI bus for interconnection (the 4xx series), those that connect using specialized "hub links" (the 8xx series), and those that connect using PCI Express (the 9xx series).

4. Peripheral Component Interconnect - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_Component...

   A typical 32-bit, 5 V-only PCI card, in this case, a SCSI adapter from Adaptec A motherboard with two 32-bit PCI slots and two sizes of PCI Express slots. Work on PCI began at the Intel Architecture Labs (IAL, also Architecture Development Lab) c. 1990. A team of primarily IAL engineers defined the architecture and developed a proof of concept ...

5. Southbridge (computing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southbridge_(computing)

   Motherboard diagram, created in 2007, which supports many on-board peripheral functions as well as several expansion slots. The functionality found in a contemporary southbridge includes: [8] [2] PCI bus. A south bridge may also include support for PCI-X. Low speed PCI Express (PCIe) interfaces usually for Ethernet and NVMe. ISA bus or LPC ...

6. PCI-X - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI-X

   PCI-X buses run only as fast as the slowest device, whereas PCIe devices are able to independently negotiate the bus speed. Also, PCI-X slots are longer than PCIe 1x through PCIe 16x, which makes it impossible to make short cards for PCI-X. PCI-X slots take quite a bit of space on motherboards, which can be a problem for ATX and smaller form ...

7. Accelerated Graphics Port - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerated_Graphics_Port

   It is a technology used on motherboards made by ECS, intended to allow an existing AGP card to be used in a new motherboard instead of requiring a PCIe card to be obtained (since the introduction of PCIe graphics cards few motherboards provide AGP slots). An "AGP Express" slot is basically a PCI slot (with twice the electrical power) with an ...
