PCI express or PCIe is currently the fastest interface being used in a PC. It IS NOT COMPATIBLE with the aging PCI interface. Even x1 PCIe has double the speed of PCI. x4, x8 and x16 PCIe are currently used for graphics interface. PCI interface is slowly being overtaken by the faster USB interface. That is why many new motherboards just have 1 or 2 PCI slots but support 8 to 10 USB ports.

particular, PCI-E is the trendy and as much as date version of the previous PCI interface. maximum cutting-part desktops use PCI-E (E stands for show) those days, so PCI is now out of date. (you would be tricky pressed to locate new motherboards that has PCI). you're able to easily locate laptop slotsI in motherboards made earlier 2005.

No, You need a PCI-Ex16 slot for one of those. They are the best graphics card out. If you have a PCI-Ex16 slot on your motherboard. You can use a PCI-Express Graphics card on it. PCI is no where near as good as PCI-Express. PCI vs. PCI-Express is like PlayStation 2 vs. PlayStation 3

its two totally different things.. yeah i have the same problem... you cant use PCIe on PCI ... i only have PCI slots and your best bet is probably the ATI Radeon 9250 (you're talking about for a vid card right?)
