Version of the PCI bus in an s1563?

Hoping to replace older motherboard in a file server, need to use the
existing Promise TX133 cards. Will this combo work? Seems to have
hinged on the PCI revision last time I tackled this.
Thanks,
Frank.

The PCI bus revision is dependent on the motherboard chipset. As the S1563
is based on the old Intel HX chipset, this has PCI V2.1.

Thank you for the answer. Yes it is an HX chipset.
More than that, thank you for the clue of putting the chip set
together with the PCI revision, the search results I had looked at
were not making that point to me. (just dense)
