Do modern motherboards even still ship with AGP and IDE? I thought those were on a death march almost a decade ago.

- phkahler 10y agoNo they don't make them any more. But my AMD64 machine from 2005 has AGP, IDE, and SATA. It's well supported by Fedora 25 which is a month old. Unless you're in new territory you have to decide what to support and will never gain traction due to the limited support.

- detaro 10y agoYou can still get mainboards for modern CPUs (e.g. Intel Skylake) with PCI slots. Not sure how they work internally, e.g. if there is a PCIe bridge and if yes on what level PCI emulation happens.
- dom0 10y agoPCI is a CPU-independent bus (unlike AT/ISA), it isn't really emulated, rather, there's a host bridge on these mainboards that connect it to PCIe from the CPU or southbridge.
