which SATA RAID controller card ?

I have 2x74Gb SATA Raptors and I want to RAID 0 them with a controller card (onboard doesn't work). I dont want to go PCI because of the bottleneck, so which card or interface should I go for ?

will PCI-e x1 be ok, or should I go for PCI-e x4 ?

thanks

thanks, will a controller card such as the ones from Highpoint be better than onboard anyway ?

I'm more worried about hitting a bottleneck on the PCI-e or else if a PCI-e raid controller causes a performance loss on any other device.
