D) PCI-X

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

CAD (Computer-Aided Design) requires fast and high-performance graphics processing, therefore, the PCIe x16 expansion slot would be the most suitable and commonly used on CAD workstations for high-end graphics card installations. PCIe x16 provides faster data transfer speeds with increased bandwidth capacity, which is necessary when dealing with complex graphical designs and 3D modeling. The other options AGP, PCIe x64, and PCI-X are outdated and/or not commonly used for graphics processing in modern-day workstations.
