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.
