Does that mean it will support upto an AGPx2 card? Or 4x, 8x?

What kind of video card can I use with a mobo with an AGP 2.0-compliant interface?

Thanks,

Tmuld.

AGP 2.0 went to 4x. The current standard is AGP 3.0 [I think] which goes
to 8x.

Also 1.5v signalling (vs. the original 3.3).

Supposedly a slot lacking any keyway barriers
near center is "universal" and can also accept older
1.x cards.
