Hi folks
I just bought a PCIe-424 card to upgrade from my previous G5 and pci-424, now I'll be using a Mac Pro
I'm a little worried cause the PCIe-424 arrived in a box that in deed says PCIe-424 card, but when I opened the box and looked at the card it says on the "chipset" on the card just PCI-424 (with cuemix dsp, bla bla bla) but there's nowhere on the actual card that says PCIe
so I looked at the pics at Motu's website and the pics look the same than my card, I know this thread might sound silly but I don't know what to think and there's no one to ask from where I bought the card due to Christmas Festivities, by the way
MARRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL!!!
I just want to make sure on what I need to say to the store where I bought this
thank you very much
P.S. I bought DP7 as well yaaaaaaaaaaaay!!

Hola Antonio !!
Congrats mi amigo on a MAC Pro and 424e and DP7.
The 424e card has a different connector no? If you look at the connectors that goes into the PCI slot, you will know if its going to fit or not.
Not100% sure about the G5 having PCIX (?) slot? So the connector should be different, I would think. PCIe connectors are really small.
Hope you get it sorted out.

Re: PCIe-424
Hey my friend,
thanx for answering... the G5 has just the old plane PCI slots, the Mac Pro is on it's way, I hope I can get it the next Monday or so, then I'll know about this new PCIe card... I haven't compare the old PCI with the new PCIe cause the old is installed on the G5 and I'm in the middle of a session, so I can't check right now...
it just was weird to me not seeing PCIe in the new one... it's just weird to me

Re: PCIe-424
Bummer!
MOTU tend to be pretty fast at sending replacements though. When I got a non working DVD for MachFive 2 they sent me a new one and I had it within 2 days and I'm in Sweden!
So if you let them know you'll probably have it at the same time as your Mac Pro.
Unless the holidays get in the day.
I HATE holiday days... Gah!
Good luck!
