about mboard supporting 64 bit pci slots??

Post by fearfox »

Are 64 bit pci slots backwards compatible to 32 bit pci slots???? Im waiting for my dualie amd motherboard to come. Im curious because 64 bit pci slots are bigger than 32 bit pci slots.

(Using a 64bit Adaptec NIC in his machines 32bit PCI slot right this second)
