ECS K7S5A Motherboard and Video Cards?

[Guest]

Currently I have an ECS K7S5A Motherboard - it says it has a 1x AGP v2.0 4x slot.

Would an eVGA GeForce FX 5200 / 128MB DDR / PCI / DVI / TV Out / Video Card
work with this mobo properly?

It says it is 8x - but my slot if only 4x. Would there be issues?

Currently I am only running an old Geforce MX2 on it. I need to upgrade.

Suggestions on a better video card with this mobo?

Thanks,

Tmuld.

99.9% of the AGP 8X video cards will also work in an AGP 4X slot.
My ATI 9600 PRO AIW AGP 8X video card work just fine in my ECS K7S5A PRO
motherboard.
