Do NI PXI Chassis support 3.3V PXI?

Newer DSPs, e.g. TI TMS320C6415, which have a PCI interface built in, only support 3.3V PCI levels. Therefore, the PXI chassis must operate at the 3.3V level as well. In addition, the cards, such as MXI-3 need to operate at those same levels. Will they? If not, does NI have any migration plans to 3.3V? Also, if 3.3V is not supported, then does NI have any suggestions for how to use a 3.3V only chipset in a new design which is intended to fit into a NI PXI cardcage? Thanks.

National Instruments PXI chassis and cards are keyed for 5V operation, and there are not any current plans to migrate to a 3.3V setup. We currently do not have a solution for using a 3.3V-only card in one of our chassis.
