AGP 8x

[twelve02]

Is it possible to run an 8xAGP card in a 4xAGP slot without any problems? I know that the card will obviously be limited to 4xAGP.

Thanks.

Yup, and I almost guarantee you won’t notice a difference.

I found this chart great. Not trying to push a shameless plug for ATI...

Yes.
Most AGP4X Cards will work on AGP8X.
But Not All AGP2X Cards will work on AGP4X.

In my case.
I have a ASUS p4s333 mobo with AGP4x slot and i was able ot place a AGP8X Inno3d GeforceFX5200.
