Posted November 27, 20204 yr Hi all, Just like the titles said. I am looking for some info for backwards compatibility for PCI gfx cards. When searching: The only info I get is PCIe related, I am looking for the older standard. I completely forgot about how this worked back then. Example: Can a PCI 3.0 card be run on a 2.x board.

January 12, 20214 yr i have XFX FX5200 256mb PCI, and it doesnt work with PCI version 2.1 mboards (i test on ALi ALADDiN 5 and VIA MVP3), and perfectly works with PCI version 2.2 (i815 and newer)
January 13, 20214 yr Author Thanks. Interesting, I own an FX5500 which does work on my Ali alladin 5 and VIA MVP3 boards.

Check out PCI pinout, check for 3.3V. Addind ATX 3.3V from PSU might help with this.
