Check you manual for you computer or motherboard. The key is literally where the slot key is placed. If a device has the 1.5V key and claims operation at 0.8V operation then you know that it is capable of 8x speed. This key slot is approximately 1.5 inches away from the registration tab connector that is often used to lock the board in place while in the slot.

Will Radeon x1650 work on a Agp 8X 1.5v motherboard?

Research your card and the specs for the motherboard of having a AGP 8x 1.5V the answer is, Yes. It will work.


Can you upgrade from a AGP 4x to AGP 8x?

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.


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.


You have Pentium-3 866 mhz processor256 mb ram Intel 815e mother board which supports 4x agp graphic card which is the best should you use 8x agp on 4xagp?

You can use a 8x AGP card but the motherboard will throttle it down to 4x, so you lose any performance gain you would get with a AGP 8x motherboard. 8x cards are cheap, and 4x cards are hard to find, so it's not going to hurt anything to buy something more powerful than what your motherboard will run it at. Pricewise, an 8x card goes from $15 to $50 for low-end graphics.

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.


Why won't work p4vxasd2 with fx5200 cgn-346tvd?

Hi, I believe the GeForce FX5200 is a 128MB DDR video card and its compatible with an AGP 8x interface. Since I have the same motherboard, P4VXASD2, I know for a fact that this motherboard does not support the AGP 8x interface, and on the contrary, the FX5200 is a AGP 8x card and I am pretty sure it is not backwards compatible with AGP 4x which in fact is supported by your motherboard. If you are looking for a video card in the same/lower price range, I would recommend you to buy the ATI Radeon 9200/9200SE/9250 because they support upto a max. of 8x and they are also backwards compatible with the AGP 4x. I hope that answers your question.
