Anyone plugged the PCI-E DVR card into a PCI-E x16 slot yet?

Recommended Posts

Cant seem to find a microatx card down here that has room for the card other then with the 16x slot. Anyone know if that would still work?

 

Thanks.

Hello Rory,

 

Works fine for the GV-1240 on a DG41RQ MB

 

Don't worry, a PCI-e 16x slot works as a 1x, a 4x and a 8x slot.

Im using Micro ATX boards .. I just tried it on a gigabyte board and apart from it being very loose as the slot is too big and it does not lock in, I got bad video quality and stuttering so I am going to switch it now for a board with a PCI-e x1 that fits the card. This mobo was orderd before i realized the DVR card would not fit as the PCI-e x1 card will go over the memory.

 

So basically it seems to does work, somewhat, how well it works must depend on the motherboard perhaps.
