Except that in the real world PCI slots are only 33 MHz. I just checked
the manual for my newest machine (AMD64 PCIe + PCI, I/O out the wazoo)
and the PCI slots are only 33 MHz.
You misunderstand me. If we're putting a bridge chip between our chip
and the PCIe slot, we can run the PCI side at whatever clock rate we
want to.
