    AGP CARDS AND MOBO

     
    ok this might be a stupid question,but just wondering
    ok my cheap ass azza motherboard only supports agp 1x/2x, now say if i get my hands on AGP 4x video card would it be able to run down at 2x?? or is that impossible?
    i ask this question because my friend is upgrading his video card and he MIGHT let me have his old geforce 2
    so i was wondering if it would work or not.
    thanks.

    yeah, agp 4x cards are backwards compatible, you'll just lose some performance.

    no, you should see a definate gain over a tnt2, just wont' be as much as it would be on a 4x system, that's all.
