No. PCI 32bit/33MHz is max 132 MB/sec. Here's PCIe speed: x1 5 Gbps 4 Gbps (500 MB/sec) x4 20 Gbps 16 Gbps (2 GB/sec) x8 40 Gbps 32 Gbps (4 GB/sec) x16 80 Gbps 64 Gbps (8 GB/sec) Martin -- %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Martin Cracauer <cracauer@cons.org> http://www.cons.org/cracauer/ FreeBSD - where you want to go, today. http://www.freebsd.org/ _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
