Sure, but your motherboard would have to support the 8x speed. You should check your bios for that information, or any manuals you received when you purchased the computer. Check the manufacturer's spec's on their website - that's another good way to find out. If it your computer supports 8x AGP, then upgrade it.

Will an AGP 8x 1.5V only motherboard run a 9800xt .8V AGP 8x 1.5V AGP 4x at top speed?

It may run, but with some problems. Performance may degrades. The card won't be damaged, though. If you already have the card, give it a try and run a bench mark. Mula I have a computer with an AGP card 1.0, that supports 1x/2x. Can I run higher cards that run at 8x or 4x, such as the Rosewell Radeon 9200SE. Right now I have a Voodoo3 3000. Yes it will, and it will run at 8x. The 1.5V only on the mother board means (not the old 3.3v AGP1 format) 8x AGP is only found with a .8v signal and therefor the fact that your main board supports 8xAGP means it can signal at .8v The 9800's spec's mean it can run at 8x AGP in any 8x agp main board and will run at 4x AGP in a main board that has a max AGP speed of 4x.


What is the best AGP 4X video card?

At the time of writing this (11/21/2009) it's the ATI HD4670 which is available in AGP 8x format will function perfectly fine in an AGP-4x motherboard.


What is the difference between a 4x agp slot and an 8x agp slot why should cards designed and built as 8x cards not be used in 4x slots and vice versa?

All 8x AGP slots are backwards-compatible with 4x cards, so there is no reason you couldn't use a 4x card, except that it's slower. Most 8x cards should work in a 4x slot as well, but they won't be able to run at their full potential, and a few may have trouble running at a lower speed (NVIDIA cards should be fine).

Can an 8x card be used in a 4x slot?

For the most part AGP 8x Cards WILL NOT work with a AGP 4x slot. The motherboard will only supply 1.5 volts of power to the card leaving the other half with no power and will not work properly.


Is a dell dimension 4400 motherboard compatible with 8x AGP?

The dimension 4550 motherboard supports up to 4x AGP according to spec. However, you can use an 8x AGP card as the specification is backwards compatible. It won't take advantage of 8x throughput but it should work just fine emulating 4x.


Does the ecs motherboard p4vxasd2 v33 with a 4x agp support a Asus 9550 128mb radeon 8x agp card?

Yes, but the card will only register at 4x AGP. You will not get the most out of the card with that mobo, but will still have great results.
