PCI Express question

[sprint_9]

Ok, not sure where to put this in the forum but thought Id put it here since its on the motherboard. Anyhow, my question deals with wanting to put a PCIe x1 Tv tuner card into a PCIe x4 slot, will the TV tuner card still work? Thanks for any help, trying to cover all the basics before I buy a MB

yes it will. it will only use 1 PCIe lane, which is ok. as long as the card is equal to or less then the motherboard slot (IE a 16x/8x/4x/1x card in a 16x slot) it will work
