Would connecting a PCIe GPU to a PCIe port affect

PCI Express slots and cards are fairly versatile as far as compatibility is concerned The graphics card might activate and work correctly in either slot

For example, each generation is backwards compatible You can therefore also operate a PCIe graphics card on a PCIe mainboard However,

pciex1_1 slot By specification, all PCIe cards are backwards compatible with the lowest bandwidth x1 lane slots If the x1 slot is designed with an open end,

pcie cem slot PCIe doubles the throughput rate per lane, giving users a transfer rate of up to 64GBs Why does this matter? The faster the throughput
