PCI Express and PCI Slot
The ATXP-965Q motherboard offers one PCI-Express x16 graphics slot providing 4Gbyte/sec data
transfer rate at each relative direction. This allows for 3.5 times the bandwidth of the AGP8X, and it
supports a peak concurrent bandwidth of 8Gbyte/sec at full speed. Five 32-bit PCI slots guarantee
the rich connectivity for peripheral I/O. Four of the five PCI slots are fully bus-master. One PCI
Express x4 in a PCI-e x16 slot provides 2Gbyte/sec concurrently bandwidth; while allowing for the
use of higher performance boards.
