Dear Barney,
PCIe cards are 1x because the chips are all wired for
1x. Intel has a marketing plan. Its not to use low-end
chips for high-end operations. Intel is just going to
cannibalized their own business by putting out higher
performance low-end chips.
really?
the 1 port server chip use only 1 lane
the 2 port server chip use only
Intel® PRO/1000 PF Dual Port Server Adapter:
Today there really is very little reason to use
PCI-X instead
of PCI-E when one is putting together a brand new
system.
the "reason" is that its faster, but its clear that
you have no
interest in understanding that, so I'll give up on
trying to educated you.
The math is clearly over your head.
I have no problems to saturate 1 gbit desktop pci-e intel card in a
50$ asrock mainboard.
Lets show me that at your pci-x board?
