DG33BU PCIE Question

Post by BillS22 »

I was reading the DG33BU specs and it said something about the PCIE limited to 256 megs.

Can I put a video card in this slot with more than 256 megs?

Thanks,
Bill

You should be able to. From the info you provided, it sounds like your motherboard can only support 256mb of SHARED memory(what your video card uses when it runs out of onboard memory) for the PCIE lane.
