ok, can someone please explain this to me? it is supposed to be faster than regular pci? but the slot is smaller. (x1) ? would there be a disadvantage to running a firewire card off of a x1 slot?

but the PCI latency is probably one of the last things you will have problems with in your computer. CPU power, memory, hard drive speed/throughput etc. is more taxing on your computer than the information going to and from your PCI cards is.QUOTE]
even 24 tracks of audio, and a dsp card on the buss?
