* There are two numeric references for PCI-Express: one is mechanical (the physical
length on the motherboard), while the second is electrical (the number of PCIe lanes
available to the slot from the CPU, PCH, or both).
PCI-Express was designed to be universal; e.g. you can install x1 devices, such as sound
cards or USB controllers, into an x16 slot. Similarly, some applications might only use
certain parts of a device (e.g. compute apps), requiring only a single PCIe lane to
accomplish its task without affecting performance. This is why there are x16 mechanical
slots with an x1 electrical PCIe lane. Using the entire length of a PCIe slot is
unnecessary, nor does it cause an adverse effect to use a shorter form-factor bus card in
a slot that physically can hold a larger form-factor bus card.
