OP OP J jettpinc Solid State Member Messages 9 Nov 24, 2004 #3 is there a way to find out if it's a 4x or 8x slot?
S slvrstang Daemon Poster Messages 754 Nov 24, 2004 #4 Uhh....the manual for the motherboard will tell you. Can't think of any easier way.
OP OP J jettpinc Solid State Member Messages 9 Nov 24, 2004 #5 mm ok i guess dat wont work then, since this is a preassembled comp and i have no clue as to where the manual is thanks anyways.
