In my opinion, there's no performance difference between PCI and PCI-E versions.Using multiple, lets say 5 dual-tuners in all PCI-slots could cause hang-ups. That's because PCI-devices, like those tuners, network cards and some HDD-controllers share the bandwith of the PCI-bus.In my opinion, if you have PCI-E slots free, buy a card which fits in that slot, then you have older slots available for legacy devices.</blockquote>
