4X stands for four-times-faster than the original AGP specs for those graphics cards. Note that 4X is different per manufacturer, so read the entire box before making an informed decision on which card to pick up. CNET.com has good articles on this subject.
-6 + 4x + (9-2x) = -6 + 4x + 9 - 2x = [ 3 + 2x ]
(2x - 3)(4x + 9)(2x + 3) = (2x - 3)(2x + 3)(4x + 9) = [(2x)^2 - (3^2)](4x + 9) = (4x^2 - 9)(4x + 9) = (4x^2)(4x) + (4x^2)(9) - (9)(4x) - (9)(9) = 16x^3 + 36 x^2 - 36x - 81
4x + 2 + 2x - 2x = 14 4x = 14 - 2 4x = 12 x = 3
2x - 5 - 4x + 8= 2x - 4x - 5 + 8= -2x + 3
Yes, AGP is completely backwards compatible.
Yes, at 4x speed.
Typicaly it is 8x but on older computers it can range from 4x, 2x, and 1x.
The dimension 4550 motherboard supports up to 4x AGP according to spec. However, you can use an 8x AGP card as the specification is backwards compatible. It won't take advantage of 8x throughput but it should work just fine emulating 4x.
Yes, it should do, but only at 4X. The video card (and it's drivers) ought to recognise the AGP's speed and will operate accordingly.
Any 4x or 8x AGP card.
It may run, but with some problems. Performance may degrades. The card won't be damaged, though. If you already have the card, give it a try and run a bench mark. Mula I have a computer with an AGP card 1.0, that supports 1x/2x. Can I run higher cards that run at 8x or 4x, such as the Rosewell Radeon 9200SE. Right now I have a Voodoo3 3000. Yes it will, and it will run at 8x. The 1.5V only on the mother board means (not the old 3.3v AGP1 format) 8x AGP is only found with a .8v signal and therefor the fact that your main board supports 8xAGP means it can signal at .8v The 9800's spec's mean it can run at 8x AGP in any 8x agp main board and will run at 4x AGP in a main board that has a max AGP speed of 4x.
There is no 4X AGP Graphics card that has 256MB but only 128MB that's called the Nvidia Geforce4 Ti4600
Yes, but the card will only register at 4x AGP. You will not get the most out of the card with that mobo, but will still have great results.
AnswerYes.Added:Sometimes! Not all AGP 1x or 2x video cards will have the same connection type as 4x or 8x cards, some older cards will not physically fit in the slot for modern motherboards.
Boot back with original card, go into motherboard Setup and put all your AGP settings to conservative - ie: AGP 2x, AGP Fast Write off, etc. Now put in new card and see if it boots. If so, play with AGP settings one-by-one (ie: change one, reboot) to get maximum speed without crashing system. Also consider upgrading the motherboard's BIOS and double-check power connections. Double-check if the new card has a power connector on it. If so, it must be connected.
