But at this point it's probably relevant to ask why do you care? I have seen many high performance PCI, PCI-X and PCI-express cards but PCI- X-2? ...that hasn't seen any wide use at all. Do you really have a card that is PCI-X-2? As I understand it it's quite dead in the water and everyone has moved on to PCI-express.

Thanks for the pointers. The reason I asked the question is I'm investigating some Fibre Channel HBA's and was asked if I had if I had PCI-X v2 available. I agree that I have not seen it mentioned in the press or anywhere else very much.

I see, for FC I'd go with a 8x PCI-express HBA.
