The PLX PCI-e bridge chip is specifically designed to increase (multiply) bandwidth and effectively distribute that bandwidth across the PCI-e lanes when using the 3.0 functions. Other manufacturers have chosen to forgo the PLX, which forces USB and SATA 3.0 to occupy the graphics PCI-e lanes causing a bottleneck and decreasing graphics performance." / /*Article Url:*/ http://www.hitechlegion.com/reviews/motherboards/2621-msi-p55-gd85-usb-and-sata-30-motherboard-review <http://www.hitechlegion.com/reviews/video-cards/2591-powercolor-radeon-hd-5670-pcs-video-card-review> /*Image Url:*/ http://www.hitechlegion.com/images/stories/p55gd85/6_thumb.jpg */ Review RSS Feed: /*http://www.hitechlegion.com/component/bca-rss-syndicator/?feed_id=1*/ /* <http://www.hitechlegion.com/images/stories/pc5770/7_thumb.jpg> Thank you for helping us grow and we would appreciate future support.
