Hello Spicers, I have currently a computer which has the following configuration: Motherboard MSI Z77A-G43 CPU Intel Core i5-3570K 8GB RAM I have also a graphic card which runs on the PCI 3.0 16X port. I have 2X PCI-E 1.0 and a 1X PCI-E 4.0 Gen2 (16X on motherboard) which are currently free. My question is simple (but I’m not sure of the answer): can I add extra cards (PCI-E 1X) on my motherboard since my CPU handles 16 lanes and that my graphic card already takes 16 lanes? How do...

I know how to check how many PCI slots are not used yet on my server, by using dmidecode and looking for Available slots ...
