I'm thinking of buying an GeForce 6800 GT. Can you tell me if my motherboard
supports it? I have an Abit BH7. I also can't find any information on whether
the MB is AGP 2, which the I believe is required for this card. The MB is fairly
new, with an AGP x4 slot, and a Pentium IV CPU.

Also the MB manual says it only supports AGP 1.5V not 3.3V. What voltage is the
card?

Thanks.

You should be ok, AGP spec 2.0 (1X,2X,4X) wants 1.5V
so unless your board is not AGP 2.0 or above compliant
it will work just fine.

GeForce 6800 GT is an AGP x4/x8 card... So it will work with your Mother
Board.
