Conventional PCI and PCI-X computer slots have four supply voltages available: +12, +5, +3.3, and ­12 V. PCI and PCI-X cards rely on +5 V and +3.3 V for most of the power and are limited to 500 mA of ...
Board maker SuperMicro (San Jose, Calif.) has a new motherboard called the P4SCT+II that puts an Intel Pentium-4 processor on the PCI-X high-bandwidth architecture. SuperMicro's P4SCT+II's provides ...
The benchmarks where done on an MSI K8D Master dual Opteron board with two 32-bits 33MHz PCI-slots, three 100MHz PCI-X-slots (divided over two PCI-busses) and a 1.6GHz Opteron 242-processor. Testing ...
You may have wondered which slot you're supposed to install a graphics card into on a motherboard when there's more than one slot. If it has only one PCI Express x16 ...
