Hi,
I'm looking for a new graphics card. Anywhere AUD$300 or less (approx USD$265). I have a Gigabyte GA-7VA motherboard. My current card is a Radeon 9200 AGP 4X. The maximum supported AGP speed is 4X. If you need any other information, just ask for it. Thanks. |

If you want anything good you will have to upgrade your motherboard to one with a pci-express slot in it. However if you dont want to do that the nvidia 7600 series will work with agp 4x http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PALIT-NVIDIA-G...QQcmdZViewItem

That one looks okay. Aren't the slots next to the AGP PCI slots? I have stuff like ethernet card and sound card in those slots. Or is there a difference between PCI and PCI-Express?
Thanks |

PCI is generally used for sound cards, network cards and other add-on cards.

PCI-E or PCI Express is used for current graphics cards. AGP is an old type graphics card slot. My System: Hybr!d

Ok, thanks. Do you know what the best AGP card is? I don't want to change my motherboard. Thanks.

well i think the 7600 is the best that a 4x agp slot can take.

Im not quite sure about what im gonna say right now. I coud recheck it on the internet. But since Ive got to work in a few minutes I cant. But I do believe ive heared the ati X1950 has a AGP version. But I might even be wron about the card. Atleast in case its a X1950 youd better choose that card.
Since I might be wrong becose I dont really know it for sure, youd better ask someone else to determine it. Got 2 go now. |
