Your customer has asked you to describe which sort of video adapter card would be best for a modern computer system, PCI, PCI Express (PCIe), or AGP. What do you tell her?

A. You tell her that PCI, PCIe, and AGP are all proprietary formats used by different video card makers and that there is no significant performance differences between them in modern computers.

B. You tell her that PCI and PCIe are different versions of the same adapter format, but that AGP should always be used for video cards in modern computers.

C. You tell her that PCI and AGP are older adapter standards and that PCIe is faster and preferred in modern computers.

D. You tell her that PCIe is only used for sound cards, and PCI is only used for devices like NIC cards and modems. AGP is used exclusively for video cards in modern computer systems.

Solution
