lmao, thx
whats also funny is that they have a pci-e x16 latch at the end of the x4 slot

 

[Poizen22]

well it needs to hold the x4 card in lol

 

[peterhuang913]

this thread reminds me of the guy who sawed off the back end pins of his x16 to get it to fit into a x4

I can't believe this thread got 3 pages...this should have been an easy one to answer.

PCI-E x16 CARDS WILL NOT FIT IN A PCI-E x4 SLOT!

the end...lol

well AMDGT player kinda has already proved it does work as he has done it with his 7900GT
i dont see why i wouldnt work now that i see the slot as long as it is in there securely

The 8800GTS is much more powerful than a 7900GT....you will need more than that to do get the performance.

but it WILL still work in the slot
