are PCI on a mouther board bouth fowards and backards compatable as in can a 16X 1.0 can it run at the same speeds as say a 16X 3.0 or is it the conector type that linus was barking on about in one of his techquiccies i could not find the veideo on such thing what im asking can i run a something like a 1060 at full speed on a 16X 1.0 slot if i give it enouth POWER

Be aware that PCI and PCIe are two different standards. What you're talking about doesn't make sense as you're saying PCI, but you mean PCIe. PCI and PCIe and not inter-compatible. 

 

To  answer your question about PCIe though, a PCIe 1.0 16x slot cannot run at the same speeds as a PCIe 3.0 16x slot. They're backwards and forwards compatible, but older versions of PCIe have lower bandwidth.

PCIe versions are backwards compatible.

PCI is even older than that and can not be compatible.

i am aware that say an AGP conector is uncompatabe as i have got a VOODOO 5 out of this and there at the moment there worth £350 or $692.90 CAN dollers but what i want to know is a PCIE and a PCI the same if only there was a tech quickly on this
