  Kona LHe PCIe slot

  Posted by Ric Shellhammer on December 31, 2006 at 9:03 pm

  Hi,
  I just installed the LHe board into slot 3 of my Mac Pro but had to reconfigure the setup to:

  slot1_16 lane for graphics card
  slot2_x4 lane
  slot3_x4 lane
  slot4_x1 lane

  Although the AJA documentation says it can be put into any x4 slot, the Expansion Slot Utility shows that the card is “running below the maximum speed”. It there any advantage of putting the board in an x8 slot?

  Happy New Year,
  Ric Shellhammer
