Hi,

What is the advantage if I use PCIe v2.0 with 2.5 GT/s only when compared to PCIe V1.0 ?

What is the advantage if I use v2.0 with 2.5 GT/s only when compared to PCIe V2.0 with 5 GT/s as well as 2.5 GT/s?
 

Hi,

There is no avantage....The only major difference between those standards is speed.

Hi

Thanks for the reply. PCIe V1.0 supports 2.5GT/s . PCIe V2.0 can support 2.5 GT/s or 5 GT/s (Both the options are available). Since PCIe is backward compatible. why is the option ( PCIe V2.0 with 2.5 GT/s only) given?
