PCI Express is NOT PCI-X

PCI-X is larger slot usually running faster at 66MHz vs. standard PCI at 33MHz. PCI-X is found mostly on server motherboards.

PCI Express is a small connector found on primarily desktop motherboards.

Hello.
I'v got an MB which is going to run 6.0/AMD64. It features a "PCI Express x1" slot. Has anyone had any experience with such a NIC? Altought this is gonna be Gigabit, I'm more insterested in stability than in performance.

Also, slightly OT, is PCI-Express aka PCI-X? Or is it PCI-E? None of the two? :)

 bye & Thanks
