SUPERMICRO AOC-SASLP-MV8


Recommended Posts

I read somewhere that most PCI-E slots only work for graphics card. 

 

That depends on the manufacturer. Read the manual as that will usually tell you what it can run. Some have 2 x16 slots but when both used will run x8 only. Some will allow cards like that in only one slot and some both.

 

You should be able to find out in your manual.

A test you could run is to move your network x1 card to the x16 slot.  If it works there you have proven that the slot will work for something beyond video.  

 

If, for some reason, the SASLP doesn't work in your motherboard (highly unlikely), you'd need to replace your motherboard anyways and this card could be used in the new motherboard.  So either way an investment in this card is a good one if you plan to expand your array.
