End result : the new main PCIE board is much nicer, the optional PCI
board is a disaster - BIOS won't finish loading when it's plugged in the
motherboard (with or without other cards)

Seems either my PCI sample is faulty or BIOS writers do not bother
testing PCI GFX cards anymore (and why should they - almost every modern
GFX card is dual-head nowadays, shame FOSS drivers do not support any of
them)
