miguelcotaque : i just was asking me why do the grafics card goes upside down ? and why do company makes them look good if they will be upside down ? forgive me if theres one that goes up XD

I see a lot of people guessing, well, I actually know the answer. Actually, most "old folks" who worked with computurs 15 or more years ago probably do.We used to have ISA slots. The cards were right-side-up. When PCI was being developed, designers wanted to give builders a choice of using up to six PCI cards or six ISA cards from a single 8-slot AT case. To geth PCI and ISA to serve the same slot hole in the case, the PCI slots were placed between the ISA slots. Then, to get them to align with the hole, they were made upside-down.With this design you could have an ISA card one slot above the PCI card and still have enough room between them to prevent shorts, and motherboard designers didn't have to take away one slot to add the other.AGP followed PCI design, the PCIe followed AGP design.Now that you know it's mostly historical, would you like to know what a horses butt has to do with the size of the space shuttle?
