It's a graphics card slot for the AGP graphics cards (the card with the ports you plug the monitor into), and like PCI and PCI-X, was superceded by PCI-Express around 2004. Hope this helps! SeanHolshouser
What else can I help you with?
The AGP slot and the PCI express X16 slot are both designed for network adapters?
No.. AGP is the Graphics Port and PCI Express is Multi-Purpose..
What is the purpose of agp slot?
An AGP slot is a post-PCI/pre-PCIx graphic card interface bus. It was a step up from the PCI video cards, but were phased out with the PCIx standard.
How do you get an agp slot?
Buy a motherboard with an AGP slot.
Will a 2x agp card work in a 4x agp slot?
Yes, AGP is completely backwards compatible.
An a agp slot is normally used for an what expansion card?
An AGP video card.
What is A small expansion slot about the size of a PCI express x1 slot?
AGP
Are ddr3 agp graphic card compatible with any motherboard with agp 8x slot?
Yes.
What expansion slot would be used to install a video capture card on a new PC?
I believe you can get PCI, PCI-X or AGP video capture cards. Each card would need the corresponding slot, such as an AGP card would require an AGP slot.
Is PCIex16 a faster slot or the latest AGP slot faster?
PCI express x16 is a faster slot
Can you upgrade your agp slot to pcie slot?
No. You will need to replace your motherboard to get PCI-E.
Why is it necessary to match your AGP video card to your motherboard AGP slot?
it wont work with out the right one
Will a PCI card work in an AGP slot of computer motherboard?
The PCI video card should work, but you may need to change a setting in your BIOS to recognize it. Enter "setup" when the computer starts, and look for a setting about video options. There is usually a setting indicating to seek an AGP or a PCI video card upon startup. NO! A pci video card will only fit into a pci slot in a motherboard. Likewise an agp will only fit into an agp slot. They are completely different. Both of these above answers are right and wrong. PCI and AGP are two totally different standards, but as long as you have an open PCI slot, you can use a PCI video card and opt not to use the AGP (Make sure to change appropriate options in your BIOS.) ==Answer == Yes you can use a PCI card where the slot is avaliable, but if your motherboard has a slot for AGP cards it is worth noting that the systemboard was designed with AGP in mind. It offers a system bus direct to the prossesor for faster unhindered communication.Running a PCI card on a AGP board may and probably will slow down your system performance.
