You might’ve come across terms like PCI or PCIe when looking into computer components, especially if you’re in the market for a new computer or trying to upgrade ...

PCI-X != PCI-Express. What you're talking about is PCI-Express, often abbreviated PCIe or PCIE or something.<BR><BR>PCIe 1x slots will (eventually) be used for everything you used your PCI slots ...

Every couple of years, when I upgrade hardware, I get caught on some technology advance. This time it is PCI Express. On my last upgrade I was fully informed on AGP and its multipliers. This time, the ...

As of right now, the fastest PCI Express protocol available on consumer motherboards is PCI Express 5.0, which offers up to 128GB/s of bi-directional x16 bandwidth. While certainly fast, PCI Express 7 ...

PCIexpress 7, or PCIe 7, is the next (next) generation of PCI Express technology that will increase the available bandwidth for all add-in cards on your desktop PC. I know, I know — you may still be ...

Are you ready for your PC to communicate by light? Don’t hold your breath, unfortunately. But the possibility became more real as the PCI Express Special Interest Group (PCI-SIG) said today that it’s ...

Anyone who’s bought or researched buying a new SSD for their PC understands their limitations: they’re often constrained by the PCI Express bus to the rest of the PC, and they generate tons of heat.

“For 30 years the guiding principle of PCI-SIG has been, ‘If we build it, they will come,’” observed Nathan Brookwood, Research Fellow at Insight 64. “Early parallel versions of PCI technology ...

Why the need for PCI Express? As processor clock speeds increase, parallel buses such as PCI become harder to implement. Signal skew and fan-out restrictions restrict the bandwidth achievable on a ...
