A technician is upgrading a client's workstation to enhance its graphic design capabilities. The motherboard of the machine offers different options for expansion cards. For optimal graphics performance, which slot type should the technician use for the new video adapter?
A general-purpose slot meant for a variety of low-bandwidth cards
Multiple slots with a bridge to split performance
The slot offering the highest memory
The slot offering the highest bandwidth and throughput
The correct slot for maximizing the graphic design capabilities of the workstation is the one that provides the widest bandwidth, capable of delivering the highest data transfer rates needed for performance-intensive tasks like graphic design. Typically, the correct choice for a graphic card would be the expansion slot on a motherboard with the highest bandwidth and data transfer rate. These slots are typically used for high-end video adapters that can push significant amounts of data per second.
