yup. By the looks of it you're PCI, not PCIe, but your Magma chassis should cope with an HD4 system.

Thumbs up Re: Adding another Accel card ?
I appreciate your guys response. How is 10.3.2 working I haven't installed it . Its a full Install correct? So another card will give me more DSP power to run more of my TDM plugs .

Yup, that's what they do. I run HD 6 in a PE6R4 and it is running great. Also, 10.3.2 is working just fine here.

Yep, HD4 here on 10.2 and rock solid, couldn't be happier... I don't need any more power, but if I see another card at the right price I just may..
