Pci-x to Pci-e Convertor?
Hi All,
I have a PE 1650 that has two PCI-x ports is it possible to change the riser to give me two PCI-e ports? If not is there an adapter to convert a PCI-x to a PCI-e port?
I'm not after the speed or bandwidth of the PCI-e port but need it for compatiablity.
Thanks,
MasterSlave

Yes thats what i'm after, but need to identify if this model server will support such a riser, and if it does what is the part number?

As for PCI-X to PCIe 'risers' or chips, I'm not sure you'll be able to find those, if they even exist. Usually it goes the other way around (turn a PCIe channel into a PCI-X bus).

<ADMIN NOTE: Broken link has been removed from this post by Dell>
2 expansion slots on 2 different riser options:
- Riser 1 Option –PCIe
2 PCI Express slots (two x8)
- Riser 2 Option – PCI-X
2 64-bit/133MHz PCI-X full-height, half-length
the first option is what i'm after.
