FUNDAMENTALS OF COMPUTER

Detailed explanation-1: -The answer is no. PCIe card and PCI/PCI-X cards are not compatible with each other due to their different configurations. In most cases, there are both PCI and PCIe slots on the motherboard, so please fit the card into its matching slot and do not misuse the two types.

Detailed explanation-2: -The PCI is a 32 bit parallel bus that works in its basic form at a frequency of 33 MHz.

Detailed explanation-3: -PCI-X buses, like standard PCI, are half-duplex bidirectional, whereas PCIe buses are full-duplex bidirectional. PCI-X buses run only as fast as the slowest device, whereas PCIe devices are able to independently negotiate the bus speed.

Detailed explanation-4: -PCI(Peripheral Component Interconnect) bus is based on ISA (Industry Standard Architecture) Bus and VL (VESA Local) Bus. PCI provides direct access to system memory for the devices that are connected to the bus which is then connected through a bridge that connects to the front side bus.
