Magma PE6R4 PCIe x4 plugging into Intel Mac PCIe x16 slot?
I wonder if the PCIe host card of Magma PE6R4 can be plugged into Intel Mac Pro's PCIe x16 slot.
When I checked Magma's site "Products>PCI and PCIx expansion>6 slot PCIX Expansion", the host card is x4 (http://www.magma.com/6slot.html). But if i type "PE6R4" in the SEARCH, it is x8. (http://www.magma.com/comersus_viewIt...?idProduct=183) I found that the PCIe host card of Magma PE6R4 spec is: PCI Express Interface card (x4) for standard height or low-profile slots Dimensions (H x L) 2.7 x 3.2 in (69 x 81 mm) PCI Express Bus Specification: Revision 1.0a The PCIe slot on the lastest Intel Mac Pro is: Three open full-length PCI Express expansion slots5 One PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot Two PCI Express 2.0 x4 slots All slots provide mechanical support for 16-lane cards 300W combined maximum for all PCI Express slots So no matter x4 or x8 the magma host card is, will it fits in the lastest Intel Mac Pro? |

The PE6R4 host card fits in any of the PCIe slots in a modern Mac Pro. Usually it's best to put it in the slot farthest from the video card, in my experience.
