No, but if you would like better performance (and can afford it), a PCIe
card is the better option. Depending on your usage and requirements, PCI-X
will be fine, but as mentioned it may not physically fit in your particular
motherboard. You need to check what slots you do have as PCIe come in a
variety of sizes also.
