I wanto to know what is PCI, ISA, EISA, what are the speeds, and everything about it.

Thank you very much

Isa: Industry Standard Architecture, 8Mhz, 8bit or 16bit interface = 16MB/sec.
Eisa: Extended Industry Standard Architecture, 8Mhz, 32bit interface = 32MB/sec.
Pci: Peripheral Component Interconnect, 33MHz, 32bit or 64 bit interface = 266MB/sec.

If every one used google when they had a hardware problem, Hardware world would be dead.

Yeah, heaven forbid he tell you a better, faster, and more efficient way to find what you need. :rolleyes:

So you're looking for the best websites concerning what you're looking for? NEWSFLASH: Google does exactly that, and yes it is in website form.

Stop wasting forum space with something that can be easily found out with one ounce of determination.

It took me as long to give him the info he wanted as it took you guys to upset him.

Why didn't you post the information he was looking for? Because you don't know the answer.

So who is the one wasting forum space? :angry:

@gsdb, please use normal fonts, big fonts like that are the equivalent of shouting.

Just to add to that, although I haven't got a picture, Eisa is the same layout as Isa, but the slot is deeper. It is literally extended in depth, as well as in performance. An Eisa slot can also take Isa cards.

umm, VESA?

I think you mean VLB (Vesa Local Bus).

If you think that looks like a PCI slot added onto an ISA slot, well that's exactly what it is, although the pin connections are different. It is a 32 bit interface running at the processor's external (ie before multipliers) speed, and is connected directly to the processor.

While I am here, I may as well talk about MCA or micro-channel architecture. Sorry, can't find a picture.

It was developed by IBM, and was a 10MHz 32-bit bus. Unfortunately, it was incompatible with ISA architecture, and was also proprietary to IBM, so there was very little uptake by other manufacturers. Since it was only slightly faster than EISA, which was backwards compatible with ISA, this architecture soon died in the pc market, although IBM continued to use it for it's RS6000 series of mini-computers, probably to stop end-users buying cheap pc components.

ISA really doesn't appear on the spot for newer components, PCI (64-Bit) has taken its place, as it offers, a larger amount of streaming bandwidth.

Nah, we'd still be in here arguing over AMD vs Intel.

Thank you very much for that information, I am sorry if I make bad questions but I am new in this kind of things.
Thank you to all people that answer me.

Foreal....if he asks a question answer it...its a way to get your post up (if thats what you want) and can also provide alot of information to others. I use Hardware World not only for asking my own question, but if im looking around and see a quesiton someone else asks i might say to myself "wow id really like to know that also" I have learned the statitics for these slots and im happy about that! thanx for the good question
