Do a bit of research on PCI versus PCIe (PCI vs PCI Express) to narrow that one down to one or the other. They have different throughput rates and I'm not sure how well a mixture of both in one box would work.
I'm not saying it wont work, just that you should research it before selecting. I would expect it to be completely one or the other, not heterogenous.

Note that PCIe is the current standard. Jamie, you should list the rest of your gear to see how its all going to hang together?
