PCIe2 LP 3D Graphics Adapter x16 (FC EC51)

Learn about the specifications and operating system requirements for feature code (FC) EC51.
Overview
The PCIe2 LP 3D Graphics Adapter x16 is a PCI Express (PCIe) generation 2.1 (Gen2.1) x16 adapter. The
adapter can only be used in a x16 PCIe (Gen2) slot in the system. The adapter accelerates and enhances
the system unit video. It has no hardware switches to set and the mode selection is made through the
software.
Important: FC EC51 is explicitly not enabled Petit boot since it is not kexec safe. The adapter will crash
the kernel when trying to boot a host OS.
