[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1074168, member: 82144"] No, not if the explanation in the linked thread is right. There is no difference in data rate between 1.0 and 1.1. Exactly what motherboard are you using, and what cards do you have plugged into it? Some motherboards juggle the available PCIe lanes (and other functions) based on configuration and whatever is plugged in. For example, I have used some shuttle boxes that only have 1 PCI and 1 PCIe x16 slot. If you plug a non-GPU card into the x16 slot then the DVI output on the mobo no longer works (seems Shuttle assumed that the x16 slot would only be used for GPUs). Another example: I currently use an Asus P5W DH deluxe motherboard. 2 PCIe x16 slots, 2 PCIe x1 slots, and 3 PCI slots. The first x16 slot only operates as x16 if nothing is plugged into the second x16 slot. If something is plugged into the second x16 slot then both the first and second operate at x8. More modern motherboards have similar and sometimes more complex arrangements. Intel mobos seem to be worse than AMD because Intel skimp on the available PCIe bandwidth for mainstream (ie. non-x*9) chipsets. [/QUOTE]
