NVIDIA Rushes Into PCI Express With nForce4. nvidia rushes into pci express with nforce4. Those AMD platforms have access to lots of marketing-friendly buzzwords and features such as PCI Express, High Definition Audio and quad SATA ports with sophisticated RAID. There is no technical reason to opt for a PCI Express enabled platform right now, but the technology will become more and more important over the next couple of months. While upcoming generations of graphics cards will certainly be available both for AGP and PCI Express, we expect the latter to become predominant in about a year, if not sooner. NVIDIA is making the transition to PCI Express particularly easy due to the vast number of features that have been crammed into the nForce4 chip....

ECS has managed to implement an AGP compatible slot on a 915P motherboard, which it calls AGP Express. The 915P-A by ECS offers both x16 PCI Express and AGP-compatible slots. Since there is no performance reason yet to make the switch from AGP to PCI Express, many users hesitate to upgrade. One possible compatibility option would have been to place a bridge chip on the motherboard to allow an AGP slot to work via PCI Express. And from a user's perspective, we would rather spend extra money on a PCI Express graphics board than on a makeshift solution....

SLI Is Coming: Time To Analyze PCI Express. sli is coming. Intel has puts its trust in PCI Express graphics, but what is it really good for? The introduction of PCI Express has not been a big deal so far, because DDR2 memory and PCI Express graphics have thus far failed to deliver the expected performance boost. The bottom line is that right now, there is basically no real difference between newer AGP systems and those using PCI Express. In order to answer this question we played around for a little while and tested all the possible link speeds of PCI Express: x1, x2, x4, x8 and x16....
