Fast answer: Place for video card in an older PC.
Long answer: 4x refers to the data transfer rate of the Accelerated Graphics Port, a specialized card slot for video cards. The standard data rate of AGP is 266 MB/s, a 4x slot is 1066 MB/s (compared to todays cards at 8,000)
Hello, a 4x AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) gives you the ability to connect 4x (LCD)(CRT) screens to your computer. for dual monitor. So for instance you can have 4 computer screen on with different things going on each screen.
Hope that helped

64 bit
What am i losing when i have and 8x agp card with only a 4x slot?
Bandwidth.
Can ati aiw x800 xt run on 4x agp?
Yes, the ATI AIW X800 XT can run on a 4x AGP slot, as it is backward compatible with AGP 4x. However, its performance may be limited compared to running it on an 8x AGP slot, which provides higher bandwidth. Ensure that your power supply can support the card, as it may require additional power connectors. Overall, while functional, the card's performance will not be optimal on a 4x AGP interface.
Is 4x AGP 32-bit slot properly accept 128-bit AGP card?
What's 4 x 32?
Can an 8x card be used in a 4x slot?
For the most part AGP 8x Cards WILL NOT work with a AGP 4x slot. The motherboard will only supply 1.5 volts of power to the card leaving the other half with no power and will not work properly.
What is the difference between a 4x agp slot and an 8x agp slot why should cards designed and built as 8x cards not be used in 4x slots and vice versa?
All 8x AGP slots are backwards-compatible with 4x cards, so there is no reason you couldn't use a 4x card, except that it's slower. Most 8x cards should work in a 4x slot as well, but they won't be able to run at their full potential, and a few may have trouble running at a lower speed (NVIDIA cards should be fine).
Will a 1x AGP video card work in an 8x AGP slot?
AnswerYes.Added:Sometimes! Not all AGP 1x or 2x video cards will have the same connection type as 4x or 8x cards, some older cards will not physically fit in the slot for modern motherboards.
How do you get an agp slot?
Buy a motherboard with an AGP slot.
Will an agp 4x video card work on a motherboard with an agp 8x slot even though the 8x slot is much larger the card is a ati all in wonder 9000 pro the board is an asus a7n8x-e.?
No it won't work!
Will a PCI Express video card work in a 4x AGP slot?
No. They are totally different on an electrical, physical, and protocol level. Attempting to insert a PCI-E card into an AGP slot, or vice versa, will likely damage both the motherboard and the card.
Sis730 chipset what video cards will work?
Older cards such as the geforce2 and the riva tnt2 should work. Any card that will slot into an AGP slot should work, just make sure that it can run in 4x mode (Modern day AGP video cards run in 8x mode but some will also run in 4x mode)
