Quick question: Can I stick an 8x GeForce Ti4200 in a Asus BH7 motherboard with only a 4x AGP slot or am I going to have a new trophy for the wall o' cooked hardware?
No announcement yet.
AGP 8x vs. 4x card

I am 99% sure that you could do that :O) Say you have a 4x AGP card, you can stick it in your mobo, even if your mobo only supports 2x. So then it will just run it at 2x :O) Why bother getting 8x though if your motherboard only supports 4x? A 4x ti4200 card would be significantly cheaper than the 8x you know!
BTW: I was gonna get a ti4200 card, but I decided on this Geforce 3, which is practically the same thing :afro: (Me and my friend benchmarked UT03, and we got about the same FPS; give or take 2 or 3. With my Geforce 3 ti200 128DDR, and his Geforce 4 ti4200 128 DDR!)
Just because something say's Geforce 4 doesn't mean it's good, contrary to popular belief :eek:
