Just a quick question here hopefully. I want to buy a video card that is advertised as AGP 8X. I'm pretty sure my motherboard is limited to AGP 4X. Will the card work?

yea i got a geforce 4 ti 4800 which is 8x agp they work fine you can choose in options from either 2x/4x/8x so its fine
if you want the most out ya card though get a 8x agp motherboard, nforce 2 board is meant 2 be very good
hope this helps
Well, actually AGP 8x won't be noticebly faster as AGP 4x. Read this article
But I agree with Nottingham_Forest FC, that a combination of a agp 8x motherboard and video card is the best option for the future.
And as an added bonus, the agp 8x revisions of the Geforce4 Ti series run at a higher memory clockspeed, so they should be faster than their agp 4x counterparts.
To answer your question, YES it will still work. B)Quote:
