PCI Express Cards and Can Windows 7 run Descent 3?
Posted: Sun Nov 08, 2009 4:05 am
So, I am looking at possibly upgrading at some point as I haven't done this in a while. My machine is capable of running a Core 2 Quad processor, 8 Gigs of RAM, and has a PCI Express 16 slot. Currently I am using the minimal, which is of course what I could afford at the time that I put my machine together.
What I'm wondering, is:
1. Are PCI Express x16 2.0 cards backwards compatible with PCI Express x16 cards?
2. How is Windows 7? I seem to be hearing great things. Can it run Descent 3 and Fallout 3 just fine?
