AGP Ports on a motherboard are "Accelerated Graphics Port" and are traditionally used for graphics cards. AGP was used because it provided a direct, dedicated pathway to the CPU and memory rather then using the PCI Bus.
Currently AGP is being phased out for PCI Express which is considerably faster.
What else can I help you with?
What sort of socket do modern graphics cards use to connect to the motherboard?

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.

Can you switch your gpu interface to a pci-e 16x from an agp 8x without getting a new motherboard?
No, this is not possible. The chipset on your motherboard controls your interfaces, and if it's programmed to understand AGP instructions, it cannot use PCI express instructions. The chipset is soldered onto the board, and cannot be replaced. Not to mention you can't plug a PCI express card into a AGP port, or a regular PCI port, so you don't even have anyplace to plug the card in. In short, if you must have PCI express, and your motherboard isn't built for it, your only option is to get a new motherboard.
How can you check your agp slot to see if its 8x or 4x?
You cannot tell by looking at AGP slot. You need to refer to motherboard manual. Or Please give the motherboard model. you cannot find it by just looking. You need to see the motherboard manual. OR please give the motherboard model.
