PCI-X should be fine if you have a 3.3v PCI card, which unfortunately CreamWare doesn't have yet. So you can't use a PCI-X system with Scope.

PCI-Express, on the other hand, is a completely new slot, and PCI-E motherboards seem to be coming with 5v PCI slots as well. So Scope should work fine in those computers.

many do. just be extra sure that there is 5v signaling. the g5s have 3.3v signaling, dunno about the others.
