Are My Mac Pro Expansion Slots PCIe 2.0 or 1.0?
Leave a reply
Every Mac Pro comes with four expansion slots on the motherboard, which can easily be accessed by taking off the side panel of your machine. Your graphics card will be in slot 1, which is double wide.

Slot 1: PCIe 2.0 (x16)
Slot 2: PCIe 2.0 (x16)
Slot 3: PCIe 2.0 (x4)
