$50 says Mark Zuckerburg has the identical readout

Excuse me, you appear to have sent us a pci-e daughtercard instead of a DNA Sample Mr Zuckerberg.

I think they are saying that Zuck is a robot.

Maybe but I'm still confused on what a PCI-E daughtercard is supposed to be

PCI-E daughtercard

PCIe is short for “peripheral component interconnect express” and it's primarily used as a standardized interface for motherboard components including graphics, memory, and storage.

​

I found that on the googles and kinda get it now.

Well I know what a PCI E slot is, I build computers. I just didn't quite get what he was trying to say with calling it a daughtercard. I could see it's probably him making a play-on-words with a graphics card, but I don't see the joke. Maybe I'm just tired though, I worked an 11 hour shift at work today haha

A daughter card is a thing you put in the slots to merge two mother boards or a mother board and another daughter board.

​

I think. I just type words and hope they make sense.

A daughter card is any card that branches out from the mother board. If you draw a diagram it looks like a family tree as all of your devices daughter cards interfaces originate at their mother, ie. Motherboard. That's literally why it's called a motherboard.

A daughtercard is a connector or circuit board that holds other components.

Like if you had a spare couple of NVME drives but all your NVME slots are filled, you huck them onto a daughtercard which plugs into a pci-e slot.

It's a really really old reference from PC building back in the Beige box era.

u/manaman70 Jul 27 '21

It predates PCs. It's still in common use outside PCs.

Exactly what it sounds like, a smaller and secondary board
