Newer G5 desktops have three open PCI Express slots. Slot 3 is an 8x slot, and slots 2 and 4 are 4x slots. Slot 1 is a 16x slot and is used by the included graphics card. All 4 slots have 16 lane connectors. For newer G5s, you should place the Apple Fibre Channel PCI Express card in slot 2 or 4, and leave slot 3 open for higher-bandwidth video capture cards. |
