    Exclamation PCI v AGP

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

    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.
