Will an AGP 8X 1.5v only motherboard accept a graphics card which is AGP 8x 0.8v AGP 4X 1.5v?

The answer is yes, although there are some exceptions to specific models of video cards which you should visit the manufacturer's website for. (there is generally a compatability chart). Major brands such as Nvidia and ATI have this. The most simple way to tell if your card is compatible is too look at the AGP slot on the motherboard and the pins on the card. a 1.5v compatible card has a "key" (slot) closest to the rear of the card. A universal card has 2 keys, one near the rear and one near thr front. Be extremely careful when attempting to install a new video card, you may cause physical damage to your video card and motherboard (I found that out the hard way but have since become a master).

Can ram be used as graphics card?
Only if you have an integrated graphics card that is built into your motherboard can it take advantage of your ram.
How can you install a graphics card on an Intel D945GCPE motherboard?
As the motherboard has only two expansion slots, both PCI, your options are rather limited. You would need to purchase a PCI graphics card, which probably isn't worth the money.
Does this motherboard have onboard graphics?
No matter what motherboard you have, it does not have onboard graphics. Only certain processors have built-in graphics.
Is it possible to use an AGP graphics card with the Intel 845GV integrated graphics motherboard or is PCI the only option?
I am assuming that you are referring to The Intel® Desktop Board D845GVSR. This Motherboard has onboard intergrated graphics, but does not have an AGP slot available, However there are 3 PCI slots available. So the answer to your question is that without an AGP slot you are restricted to PCI or ONBoard Graphics with this motherboard.
I have a PC with the following details 2.93GHz 1.5GB Ram Pentium 4 256MB video card Is it possible to get or put or insert an external graphic card to it?
Graphics cards connect to the computer only through the connectors present on the motherboard so an external graphics card is unfortunately not an option. You can always switch your video card entirely, but be sure to check if the motherboard you have supports it.
Is it possible to run an AGP card with DDR ram on a motherboard that only supports sdram?
The Accellerated Graphics Port card uses memory completely separate from the motherboard memory. They don't mix. Make sure you use the memory that the AGP card nees in the AGP card, and memory that the motheroboard needs in the motherboard. If you do that, everything will be ok.
Will A video card whit DDR3 work whit A DDR2 motherboard?
GPU memory is independent of the motherboard that runs its own memory. You can have only one type of memory on a motherboard, ie. DDR3, and have a graphics card with built in DDR5 memory. Short answer is yes, they are independent of each other.
Hi I would like to get multi screen display I have got two proper vga ports on my PC one on my motherboard asus p5vd2-mx se and one on my graphics card nvidia geforce 8400 gs is this even possible?
I don't think so. Usually, a graphics card will automatically disable the VGA port on the motherboard allowing you to only use one or the other. The only way to use dual monitors is to have 2 ports directly on the graphics card.
Will a geforce gtx 460 video card work on a Asus m3a76-cm motherboard?
Yes, it should work perfectly fine. The Asus M3A76-CM has a PCI-E 2.0 x16 rail, and the GTX 460 requires a PCI-E 2.0 x16 rail. Always make sure that the motherboard has a x16 rail, this gives the motherboard the ability to transfer data on all 16 rails of the graphics card, versus an x4, which would only transfer data on 4 rails of the graphics card. -Make sure your PSU is rated good enough for the graphics card Good Luck
What is a Radeon graphics cards?
A Radeon graphics card is only the makers.
If you have more ram does it help the graphics card?
no graphics cards have there own built in video ram The above answer is only partially correct. If a computer had onboard graphics, where there is no dedicated graphics card, then the graphics chip is on the motherboard itself. In this case, it will use the system RAM for memory. This can reduce the total amount available to the system. So if you have onboard graphics (no dedicated graphics card), then a dedicated GPU(graphics processing unit) could in fact increase available RAM. However, the difference is not likely to be large. RAM is cheap. Your best option is to buy more RAM for your system.
Can your PC take another graphics card?
yes but first you have to remove your first card OR, if your motherboard has another exact same slot and has either SLI or CrossFire capabilities, you can add another only the exact same card in to have almost double the GPU processing power.
