Sparks.nl Posted November 27, 2020 Posted November 27, 2020 (edited) 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.

moi_kot_lybit_moloko Posted January 12, 2021 Posted January 12, 2021 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) Quote
Sparks.nl Posted January 13, 2021 Author Posted January 13, 2021 Thanks. Interesting, I own an FX5500 which does work on my Ali alladin 5 and VIA MVP3 boards. Quote

Check out PCI pinout, check for 3.3V. Addind ATX 3.3V from PSU might help with this. 1 Quote
