The Karbon-CL is a x8 PCI Express board. It can work in any PCI Express slot that it can
fit it. Usually this means an x8 or x16 slot. However, some mother boards have x4 slots
with x8 connectors. The Karbon-CL will work in these slots, although performance my
be somewhat reduced.
Figure 1-3 shows the block diagram of the Karbon-CL hardware platform. Recall that
this platform is available in a number of configurations. The block diagrams of the cur-

the details of the various models.
