Hi,

Im new to this and i think im going to buy a new motherboard.. Tried to find some info about the difference between x1 and x16..

So, does it matter if i use x1 or x16 for my GPU? Thinking about 5850. Do i loose Mhash/s due to x1 instead of x16?
Is there any loss using x1 to x16 converter?

Why i wounder is because i can find multiple x1 slot-cards for less price then multiple x16-slot cards!
