Adding USB 3.0 via a PCI-E card.

[IggyStooge]

Hello,

What is the best option OCUK sells to add USB 3.0 to my ageing system without spending a lot of money.

USB 3.0 on my Asus P6X58D-E doesn't work as it should and I need something faster than USB 2.0.
There only appears to be one PCI-E slot free (graphics card covers some) and it is a light blue one above the bottom white one (used for sound card).

Is any PCI-E slot suitable?

I would appreciate your advice.

Thanks.

Looks like the top white slot on your motherboard is pci-e.

That white slot, above the PCIe 2.0 x16 is actually blue on my mobo for some reason. I hadn't noticed it before but it is PCIe x1 I just found out. The other free one is just PCI.

The only suitable card I see on OCUK in stock is the Dynamode £11.99. Am I missing any others?
