Slightly OT: Quadro FX3000 and AGP 4X vs. 8X
For a gaming machine, the video card performance is *everything*. Is that G4-4200 AGP 8x? I know my GF3 TI200 is only AGP 4x.

Educating the clueless (AGP4x vs AGP8x)
Just a simple question: Will it be possible to use a AGP 8x card like Matrox Parhelia on a AGP 4x motherboard like APOX 4BEA? APOX? I think you mean EPoX? :-) Anyway, yes, it'll work fine. In 4x mode obviously, but that's a moot point anyway, as the Parhelia isn't anywhere fast enough to need the extra bandwidth.

However, it may be limited by the amount of data that can pass through an AGP 4x slot. In practise this is not normally a problem unless you buy the See here: http://www.firingsquad.com/hardware/powercolor_radeon_x1950_pro_agp_review/default.asp for a direct comparison of an ATi X1950 AGP vs PCIe Cheers!

It is actually AGP that is the bottleneck: AGP4X speed 1.1GB/s AGP8X speed 2.1GB/s The raw numbers are clear, AGP8X is twice the speed of AGP4X. But then this comparison needs to be taken in context with the graphics card specifications (poking around the Nvidia site): Geforce4 Ti4600 Clock Speed 300MHz Memory

I had to use ATI tray tools to set the AGP at 4x and turn off fast writes to prevent the black screens. So it actually isn't an overheating issue, despite what you said in the original post. I had to drop the AGP speed to 4x on my KT800 board, too. At AGP 8x Battlefield 2 would freeze about about 5 minutes,

I was wondering...from what I understand the 9700Pro board will run on AGP 2x and 4x... but what is the difference if your running it on say 4x as opposed to 8x? Is there a noitcable improvement? I'm curious because I'm wondering if I should go out and buy a new mobo that supports AGP 8x or just leave it running at

dilema VIA KT333CF vs kt400
Not to mention that in my reply post, I spoke not of only Lightwave, but of SoftImage and Pro/E. Long and short, the system can pump the bits, so hence the standing question of AGP 8X vs. 4X for the FX3000. Forget any mention of Lightwave or software in general. Regards, David Michaud.

6800XT vs 7600GS vs x800 Pro for AGP
My motherboard supports AGP 4X/Pro while the card is capable of AGP 8X bandwidths. While many mid-range cards may not typically benefit from the increased bandwidth of AGP 8X, is it possible the FX3000 is bottlenecked by my AGP bus? I have read threads regarding AGP 4X vs. 8X with conflicting conclusions.

AGP 4x vs AGP8X
Besides this the memory bandwith is absolutely unimportant if a gfx subsystem simply can´t make use of it because it´s too slow... and vice versa - if your AGP port ( most users do *not* have AGP 8x, or even AGP 4x ) ??? AGP4x is standard since end-1999... is way slower than your DDVR video RAM, it is pointless

... than lubricated condoms but it turned out AGP was no big deal...back then. Is the same true now? I'm not finding very many info sources on the frame rate effect from AGP 4X being that much better than 2X in games. For example, will 8X AGP be important for Doom 3, MSFS2k2(or whenever it comes out) and Unreal 2??

I beg to differ, 2x to 4x was ok, 4x to 8x is incredible..Here are the speeds and you decide if it is worth it! 1x (266Mbps) (8 bytes per two clock cycles) 2x (533Mbps) (8 bytes per clock cycle) 4x (1.07Gbps) (16 bytes per clock cycle) 8x (2.1Gbps) (32 bytes per clock cycle) These are only theoretical numbers and

faster AGP (AGP 4X, perhaps 8X?) - faster RAM (RAMBus available this summer?) Atleast get a motherboard with as many PCI slots as possible. Try to put something together that will let you dump ISA all together (this will also be common very soon if not already). -- Rune, http://runesbike.com.

I'm not even sure if there's such a thing as a basic AGP 8x card. In my own case, I'm keeping my PCI TNT2 card to tie me over for a few weeks/months until the next generation of videocards come out, and the price of the Radeon 9000 Pro AIW comes down a little. A basic TNT2 AGP 4x card costs around 27 euros here.
