Asus a8n32 sli deluxe

[equilibrium]

Hi,

I have just got the new asus a8n32 sli deluxe board and i was wondering what can be used on the x4 pcie slot? I know network cards can be used. Is it possible to get a soundcard for this? Ive never used this slot before which is why im asking as i dont really knowwhat its for?

AFAIK there are no sound cards for PCI-E slots yet, i read an explanation why but i have forgotten the details, something about the PCI-E bus not being suited for transferring audio data which makes it difficult to make one.

I would imagine you might be able to find a RAID card for that slot, cant think of much else though.
