:confused: Please could some one advise me if that AGPx8 Graphic card is the same as a PCI-E fitment? :confused:

Thank You.

Just a typical question is PCI-E faster than AGPx8?

For all intents and purposes - NO!

BUT, there are fewer and fewer AGP supporting mobo's being made.

I totally agree with you on that statement.

I have just checked the current graphics card and the cooling fan is feeling a bit on the rough side just hope it dose not give up all together.
