Hey guys I wanna upgrade to a new screen card only problem is my mb suports PCE-I 1.0 slot...

I heard that if you use a card with a PCE-I2.0 slot that it will bottleneck?? is this true?
Can you guy's recommend any screen cards that support PCI-E 1.0??


Thanks

PS wierd site layout :whistle:

btw current screen card is a 7600gt 256mb gddr2

-10,the layout is awesome.:)
 
PCI-E 1.0 doesn't bottleneck cards, so don't worry choose any card you like
 
pci-e 2.0 cards will work in pci-e 1.0 but their performance wont be as good as it can be. so yes it does bottleneck
 
Unless you get a really high end card, its not going to make much difference.
 
TwinTech nVidia Geforce Graphics Card GTS250 XT OC Edition??? to much or i was thinking about getting a 9800gt
 
I am not sure pci e 2 cards ever max out a pci 1.0 slot, not the mid to low end ones any how, maybe crossfire/sli and top end. Get the 250
 
There is no card that will bottleneck a pci ex 1.0 16x slot.

Get a 4850 or 5750.
