I have PCI 1.0 x8 slot available. If I used this adapter, what would be the bandwidth available to the PCI Express port? 150MB/s only?

I would not bet on anything fast.. 150mb would be the high point... you're going through a PCI slot.. that's the limit.

its pci 3.0 but runs in 2.0 as well, the difference is you lose a 10% on bandwith speed but it will work fine...

Not only that, but it will highly boost your system's performance. This card will work with any PCI express slot, but word to the wise, it comes with a weird little cord that looks like trash, that's actually your power cord. You have to plug it into the motherboard AND plug the cord into one of your power supply wires. I spent an hour staring at it, wondering why it wasn't working before i thought to plug that cord in! Hope this helps.

I would not use for gaming because you are limiting your bus speed from 16x to 1x. I did look to see if there were 16x to 16x and I could not find any of this style, but there are powered ribbons ones you can buy. PCIE 16x to 16x Powered Flexible Riser Extender Cable with Molex (Bitcoin Mining / Gaming)Note: I did buy a powered ribbon and it did not detect my card. I have read that its 50/50 whether it will work or not.

If you are looking for an adapter for a desktop (as opposed to a laptop), look for a PCI wireless card, minimally a b/n (54mbps).

That's the reason I bought this card I have a MB with only one PCIe X1 slot and no video card The OS it's windows home server 1Only using VGA out And it work of the box (I do not research for your MB specs)Cheers

You don't actually use a PCI port, just the bracket slot. That port, however, will be useless with the module in place.

Fit in any PCI-Express x1 , x2 , x4 , x8 or x16 Socket , Compliant with PCI Express Base Specification 2.0. Taking usage conditions into consideration, such as different motherboards and hard drives, the actual transfer speed will depend on the specific usage environment.

Half size format express. The dual port uses the whole slot and is physically more stable. Performance is as specified. I do not know if it can be put in a pcmcia slot nor do I know how it will perform with the older chipsets.

Even you install it is a x 16 slot, it only use up 1 Lan ( 1 x ), so maximum speed is stil PCIe Ver 2.0 1 X ( 5Gbps, about 4XX MB/s )

The card performs at PCIe 2.0 speeds only, but it will work in slots that support PCIe 2.0 and 3.0 (x8 or x16)

The second slot is a PCI ex4 and I believe you are correct about 25% power. I believe ex4 has a fourth of the bandwidth of x16.

PCI Express is backwards compatible as long as you have the full sized 8x or 16x slot. This will not work in a 4x or 1x PCI Express slot.

The adaptor is compatible with PCIE 1.0 and 2.0 specifications (2.5 and 5GHz signaling, 250 and 500MB/s data rate), however the maximum data rate in the PCIE 1.0 connection will be limited at 250MB/s for a SATA III device.Note that the (supported) SATA signaling is 1.5, 3.0 and 6.0GHz (150, 300 and 600MB/s), different from PCIE data rates. Obviously the lower of the two, in any combination, will apply.

Hi, Actually you can connect a PCIe card into a slot that has at least the same number of channels it. In other words, a PCIe x1 card slot can operate in a x4, x8 and x16. The only drawback is that the process does not work on a reciprocal basis (eg, you can not connect a PCIe x16 card into a slot x1) due to physical limitations. When you insert a card in a PCIe slot, just use the number of channels that asks the card. According to the manufacturer Available PCI Express based 1.0a compliant slot.

Yes, According to the specs I found on your board it has 1 pcie x16 2.0 the card is made fore the pcie x16 3.0 so the card wont be able to transfer data as fast as it is capable of. Also this card does require additional power from a compatable power supply.

I do not have a Dell pc, so I do not know what slots may be installed, and the card I have is installed, in service, and not available to me at the moment. The card has, to the best of my memory, a standard pci interface, not one of the newer pci-express interfaces. Hope this helps.
