| Re: PCI vs PCI-E Network Card
PCI Express is a computer expansion card standard designed to replace the older PCI, PCI-X, and AGP standards. A There really is no difference in performance between a PCI and PCIe 1000Mbit Ethernet Card if it only has 1 port. PCIe card will fit into a slot of its physical size or bigger, but may not fit into a smaller PCIe slot. |

The PCI Express standard is also intended to replace PC Card technology with PCI, Another physical difference between PCI Express Cards and PCI is the distance between the card's bracket and the start of the connector. |

PCIe is much faster compared to PCI. PCIe uses a serial interface while PCI uses a parallel interface. PCI slots and PCI Express slots are not compatible; PCIe speed is classified into lanes, each capable of delivering up to 1GB/s data transfer. |
