Well I want to get this a new graphics card, but its PCI-E and I have a PCI, is there any PCI to PCI-E adapters out there? thanks :3
And also would this disturb the performance of the graphics card O_o just wondering lol.

| if you don't have a PCI-E slot, that's a sign that you need a new computer.

If there is an adapter then you will be running the Video Card at PCI speeds...
Unfortunately I don't think there is any adapter...

Bandwidth is different, protocol is different, timings are different, electrical shit is different. Would be nearly impossible to create a working adapter. Were someone actually able to create an adapter, the performance loss of over 300MB/s would certainly hinder performance. Also, good luck fitting it in your case with the card being elevated at least a half inch.
