Pci and pci express are two different animals. Modern video cards are
pci express x16, modern expansion cards are pci express x1, which should
fit the x16 slot fine. You are thinking of plain pci cards which are
shaped differently and intel is desperately trying to kill.

Have a look at a motherboard. You will find the video slots set back to
far for a regular PCI card and not long enough.

Nope, they also fit other pci-express cards.

How do you save a slot? When its a PCI 1x16 slot that only fits graphic
cards.

What a waste of money. With the amount of Ram these days, there is no
need for a separate graphics card unless you have specific
entertainment/gaming needs. You get all the basics, possibly with the
exception of dual-monitor support, with a built-in graphics card and
you save $80-200 or more by avoiding the need for a separate card and
you also save a slot.

Dear inthane,
I'm getting a separate graphics card- and heard some recommendation
to that
effect a long while ago. Sorry, that I don't remember the
specifics, and
hope that the person who said it knew whereof he spoke. The guy
building the
computer likes separate graphics cards also, so that reinforced the
decision
to go that way. Don't tear up your wife's computer ;)
Thanks for the info- will write back if any problem arises.
Cher

I have 4 computers here and the only one I have had any trouble with
in this
area is my wife's AMD with a built in AMD video card. and I'm not even
trying to say that all the built in AMD cards are troublesome, just
the one
she has, I'll go break into her machine and find out which one its
using if
you want that info.
but her AMD matching, with built in video card has some small
troubles that
seem to be (from all I and FS can determine) troubles with this setup.
regards,
inthane

Thanks for the suggestion Rick- unfortunately not very much there. I
tried
both graphics card and video card- I'm confused at this point whether
they
are different or if the term has just changed ;) It was a good
suggestion
though, and I forget that that source of info is available.

Hi Cher,
You could also check the technical service bulletins on the FS
website.
HTH,

2nd question on buying computer- Does a ATI vs. Nvidia
graphics card make a difference to JFW in anyone's experience? Last
time I
bought an Nvidia G-Force card on an AMD processor, and I feel that
JFW has
not lived as happily as might be on this computer and am wondering
whether
the graphics card is a factor. Thanks for any insight and comments.
Cher
