I suggest you use the PCI Express Altera Core with Avalon MM Interface. Look at the AN532 (http://www.altera.com/literature/an/an532.pdf?gsa_pos=3&wt.oss_r=1&wt.oss=sopc%20pci%20express (http://www.altera.com/literature/an/an532.pdf?gsa_pos=3&wt.oss_r=1&wt.oss=sopc%20pci%20express)).

It's interesting to use the Jungo Driver.

With SOPC Builder + PCI Express Core + Avalon MM + Dma Controller or SGDMA + Jungo Driver is the fast way of build a good system with good performance.
