What are the bits and Hz for PCI-X?

  1. 32bits and 33MHz

  2. 64bits and 133MHz

  3. 32bits and 133MHz

  4. 64bits and 33MHz

The correct answer is: 64bits and 133MHz

PCI-X stands for Peripheral Component Interconnect eXtended and is a parallel bus connection used for connecting various computer components. The bits and Hz for PCI-X refer to the data width and clock frequency of the bus. Option A is incorrect because it only specifies the data width and not the clock frequency. Option C is incorrect because it has the same data width as Option A, but a higher clock frequency which is not consistent with PCI-X specifications. Option D is incorrect because it has the same clock frequency as Option A, but a higher data width which is also not consistent with PCI-X specifications. Therefore, Option B is the correct answer with a data width of 64 bits and a clock frequency of 133 MHz, which is in line with PCI-X standards.
