What type of expansion slot older and slower devices use?

The original IBM compatible parts used an 8-bit ISA slot. After that, they moved to a 16-bit ISA slot. There were other things like a VESA slot that didn't last for long. Then there were PCI slots (not express), and AGP was a faster video card slot standard. Then PCI-express replaced both PCI and AGP.

Which slot is used for 3d graphics video cards?

The now obsolete AGP slot was used solely for video. The current slots used for video, the large x16 PCIe connectors, can also be used for general PCIe expansion cards. Sitting in shelf above my head, I still have some PCI and ISA slot video cards: using a general-purpose expansion slot for video is the standard way, and a dedicated graphics expansion slot was a short-term abberation.


What is the purpose of an AGP slot?

AGP (accelerated graphics port) slots are special slots on the motherboard specifically designed to take a graphics card (or video card as they're often called).In recent years AGP has been replaced by the PCI-express standard (or PCI-e as they are often referred to) and thus AGP is generally considered an obsolete format. Even so, AGP hardware is still available, but often at an increased cost & with decreased performance.AGP slots came in a few different speeds. The most common of which was 4X and 8X slots. 8X slots could utilize higher performance 8X cards. A 4X slot is limited to only 4X cards. However, many 8X cards have the capability to be used in a 4X slot, this will usually be denoted in the specifications of the card.


What type of expansion card is typically plugged into an AGP slot?
