Hi guys
Building a new comp and am stuck - need a graphics card... can't use the old one as a stop gap as it is AGP2x and the new mobo only takes AGP4x+.
So I need either a really shitty cheap PCI card, or a really good AGP one! If anyone has one for sale, please LMK
thanks,
Stefan

you can disable AGP 4x pretty easy via the CMOS... there will also be a jumper for it on the motherboard. The jumper overides the CMOS setting though.
If you'd like an upgraded agp card I can organise a cheap radeon 9800 for you after new year...
send me a PM

Can't easilly get to bios w/out graphics card  This new board (Abit An7) is pretty much jumperless, only has one AFAIK.
I was very surprised when my old... umm trident 9750 wouldn't even physically fit in the AGP4 slot. The... raised key is in a different spot, the slot is the right length but needs to be spun 180* around.

I got a PCI 3DFX VooDoo 3 2000 16Mb laying around.
This card is actually pretty fuckin good still! it's faster in alot of games then my geforc 440MX! the framerates are consistent. Alot of games that have come out were made to run well on it. (newer games however, forget it, no pixel/vertex shaders, no hardware TnL)
