Pci express

Do pci-e graphics cards plug into a normal pci slot . I have no idea never used one but considering trying one
but ive got to know something on them before i buy one so does pci-e plug into a normal pci slot

No, it's a new slot design, different from both old PCI and AGP. Unless you have a recent intel chipset board of the upcoming nforce4 boards you do not have a PCI-E slot.

it will be the new standard for all slots later on. good bye agp and plain pci.
