The first type of expansion slot we need to be familiar with is the PCI or Peripheral Component Interconnect expansion slot. Although it is now being replaced with newer bus, we can still find it in many older computers. PCI slots are usually colored white. PCI is plug-and-play, meaning that newly installed devices can be detected and configured automatically. PCI buses are most commonly used for devices such as sound cards, modems, network cards, storage device controllers, etc.
Mini-PCI devices are small cards with either or pins. A typical use for a mini-PCI slot is to add internal cards such as wireless cards to laptops. On occasion we will see a PCI slot, but it will be colored orange. AGP slots are usually brown in color, like we can see on the picture. Results 1 to 6 of 6. Thanks, Robert. Alot of new boards do not even have an ISA slot on them. Otherwise stick with PCI if buying new. Do you want the specs for both?
Plus too many others. OC Knight If you have to ask how much it costs, you can't afford it. It is a conventional slot which is installed in the computer to attach the hardware devices with the computer.
It has more improved speed and is more efficient. It is largely used especially in laptops and as Express card. ISA slot is a computer bus which is develops made personal computers. Now you wouldn't want isa on your motherboard. Any hardware that is still isa is so out of date and slow, it would seriously degrade the performance of your computer and should be replaced.
If one burns out, you can replace it instead of replacing a whole motherboard. An ISA slot may be used to add a video card, a network card, or an extra serial port. ISA bus was a standard used for years. They began to be phased out in the early 's, and are now obsolete. They were short lived, quickly replaced by PCI slots. PCI was introduced in the mid 's, and are still common today. It is to buses what Beta is to the VCR: A good technology, but made obsolete because it's developers made it too expensive for other manufacturers to license.
ISA PCI cards and PCI-X cards are interchangeable and can be used in one another's slots, with some performance degradation. A bit PCI slot looks like two bit slots put together. It has an additional 32 pins for a wider data bus. P1 motherboards are "Socket 7", it should be written on the CPU socket. The ram slots may be either pin or pin 'Dimm' slots on desktop motehrboards, laptop boars could have either of these or pin So-Dimm.
