trevormacro Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Hello, What is the best motherboard socket LGA 2011 with PCI-X slot ? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Housefly88 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Are you referring to the PCI-X Slots, found on some Apple Power Macs, and server NIC Cards? I have personally not run across any 2011 mobos with that type of slot. There might be a couple of manufactures who do make a board with a PCI-X slot. If you don't mind me asking, what are you planning on using the slot for? Do you have a PCI-X card that you want to use? I apologize for my curiosity, I have had a few mobo's with those slots, and I always ended up using them as standard PCI slots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevormacro Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 yes PCI-X slots (66 MHz). What manufactures ho do make a board LGA 2011 with PCI-X slots ? I prefer these slot because simple PCI slot work only @33MHz. I have agp2x card + agp2pci adaptor (work better @66MHz). I want to run 3dmark2001se to have the best score.(look my new world record on my other thread) Anyone help me ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viss Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) Why socket 2011 for 01se ? Nice project !! Edited January 19, 2012 by Viss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mean Machine Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I'm pretty sure your AGP 2x card will bottleneck looooooooooong before you have use for the S2011 power. Try getting hold of like a S1156 or 1366 board with PCI-X, that should be more than enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
