| 92413 | 2002-10-24 04:55:00 | Hi I was wondering my motherboard doesn't have a AGP slot, does it mean that I can't have a graphic card...? Every where I see, all graphics cards are AGP's. What are the chances of stores selling PCI graphic cards? And if it is still possible what kinds can I get now, Geforce 2, TNT 2...etc and how many MBs? Thanks alot Jase Sen |

| 92416 | 2002-10-24 07:15:00 | Hi... I have seen PCI graphics cards lumped in a pile at the staionery warehouse...and read about them at Tom's Hardware's website (heaps of good info about PCI's vs AGP's), which I think PCI cards seem to fall down a bit in 3D textures... Cheers.. |

| 92417 | 2002-10-24 07:24:00 | All i've seen in GF2's and TNT2's, they're really the only types that are made in PCI, you won't find anything like a GF4 in PCI. | Mr. Insanity (957) | ||
| 92418 | 2002-10-24 08:55:00 | You will probably max out at a 32 Mb GF2 in PCI Remember not all Motherboards with on-board graphicd can take an external PCI card either. Some insist on maintaining a conflict with the result they wont boot, and cannot be disabled. Many are OK, but check before you spend the money. |
