The sound card im getting:
http://www.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=1&subcategory=208&product=14000&nav=3
requires a PCI 2.1 slot

The motherboard im getting:
http://www2.abit.com.tw/page/uk/mot...LI&fMTYPE=Socket 939&pPRODINFO=Specifications
has 2 x PCI Express X16, 2 x PCI Express X1, 2 x PCI slots, 1 x AudioMAX

The sound card that comes with it uses the AudioMAX slot i presume.
I need to know if the PCI 2.1 slot that the better sound card requires is just one of the normal PCI slots or a PCI Express X16 or some other slot that my motherboard doesn't have?
