I'm just wondering, purely hypothetically, if a modern gfx card (say an 8800GTX) would actually suffer any performance degradation if installed in an x8 slot? Do they actually require faster than a 2GB/sec link? Anyone tried or know for sure?
I forget what article it was, but the one I read saw no appreciable difference even with a GTX. A few % points loss at most. That could change with R600 or the new NVidia GPUs, of course.
