Hi all,
Hope someone have the knowledge to help me out
Need to install a firewire Card for streaming video editing from a DV camera since no firewire is onboard.
I have a Asus X79 deluxe board: http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/X79DELUXE/
I have a GPU Geforce GTX 780 Strix : Http://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/STRIXGTX780OC6GD5/
I have a Asus soundcard: http://www.asus.com/Sound_Cards/Xonar_D2X/
So the problem is my GPU is covering for the first PCIEX1(pciexpress) slot
And in the other PCIEX1 slot i have the soundcard so that means i only have the 3 PCIEX16 slot available for expansions.
A few Things im thinking about:
Can i buy a PCI firewire Card that can fit with my motherboard since the mobo is new i have doubts about these long PCI slots will Work with an older PCI firewire Card.
I know i could not take my old creative audigy pci sound Card and put in my new machine since the pci slot in the old vs the new has changed.
Any suggestions to what firewire PCI type/Card that will Work on this new motherboards PCI slots if any?
If not then does anyone know if i can get an adapter for PCIEX16 to PCIEX1 so i can buy a firewire express expansion Card and pop that in there?
If that is not possible any other suggestions would be great?
Regards
Ken
