how would you fill up theese 5 empty PCI slots?

[j@cko]

there are still 5 PCI slots left empty on the board, I kinda wanna to fill couple of them up.
I plan to get a PCI modem, that's about, and a TV-Card, any other suggestions?

 

[Jgtdragon]

This is on my system :

pci slots
1. nic
2. tv tuner card
3. sound card
4. Scsi Adapter card
5. Modem

How many slots of pci you have anyways?

Or you could NOT fill them up, and retain a quick boot-up time

 

[Blayze]

my PCI slots are

1. empty
2. scsi card
3. dvd dxr3 decoder
4. sound blaster live value
5. nic

Hmm... I have
1. SBLive!
2. NIC
3. Studio PCTV
4. Empty
5. Empty
6. Empty

A scsi card would be nice though, or perhaps a firewire card.

"You want to fill them up"???

Why??

You want to put cards in there just so you won't have empty slots?

I've heard it all now.

On my MSI K7T Pro(6 PCI Slots)
Slot 1 empty
Slot 2 SBLive value 1024
Slot 3 empty
Slot 4 Modem Diamond SupraExpress 56i V PRO
Slot 5 empty
Slot 6 empty.

I guess you could put in ATA-100 PCI Card,TV tuner card,NIC card.

Whitedog says it all . . . an unfilled slot is just one more link to a more stable system. <VBG>

I only need to fill 2 PCI slots . . . a NIC and SCSI. Empty is beautiful!

Internal modems suck. TV is better on my big Sony XBR . . . who needs it on a computer!
