[Open-graphics] PCIe know-how?

OGP does not do PCIe (yet). Only PCI and PCI-X.

Anyway, for your instrument I would suggest interfacing it to USB2 if 
you can offload the processing to dsp/fpga, but that won't be under 
$100. For such a price you can get an ADC and a PCIe interface, but then 
you will have troubles with processing the 500+ MB/s of data in realtime 
on the PC's CPU..
