His board: XFX MG-630i-7159 http://www.motherboards.org/reviews/motherboards/1756_3.html The first thing to notice on this board is that it is a mATX board, designed to fit into a small case. As the board has 18 PCI Express lanes available to it, there’s not much sense in putting a lot of expansion on the board. A single x16 PCI Express 1.0a slot is available for a discrete graphics card like the 8800GT or ATI 3870X2 if you want it. Rounding out the expansion on the board is a single PCI Express x1 slot and two PCI slots, giving room for expansion if you need it. If the on-board uses x1, and the nic uses x1 (18-2) there should be x16 left for the x16 slot? -- PCIExpress 1.0 16x Port (nforce 630i) and 16x-Card 8600 GTS only synced at bus-type 4x https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/541749 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
