    Question PCIe 1x in 8x slot?

    Thanks! That's what I was hoping was the case. Out of curiosity, I'm using a card in PCIe 3.0 x1_1, is that limiting my video card in PCIe 3.0 x16/x8_1? Would moving all the PCIe x1 cards to the bottom slots work better?

    [SOLVED] Is upgrading the Ram a good idea

    Hi Everyone, A friend of mine has a iMac (24 inch, Early 2009, 2.66 Ghz Core Duo). He wants me to upgrade the Ram from 4GB to 8GB. My question is will this help? The most intensive thing he does is run Photoshop CS4. I'm sure it'll help some, but will it be really noticeable?
