Help with compatibility

Last response: in Graphics & Displays
Share

I have a ASRock 939Dual-SATA2, with a HIS 4650 AGP.

i am about to upgrade my other computer from a PCIe ATI 4830 to a PCIe AMD 7750 or AMD 7850.

I would like to take the 4830 PCIe and add it to my system with the 4650 AGP.

Can i do it?

would having both improve performance?

Would having both be able to crossfire (over the bus, seeing that the agp model doesn't have the CF bar.)?


ps. the mobo supports a feature where it can have an agp and PCIe card and each have 2 monitors. in the CD manual given uses mixed matched cards and allows them to display one desktop.

1. Gigabyte R9200 + Gigabyte-R-X600Pro
2. Winfast A340TDH + ASUA-EN5750

Any Help would be appreciated

Furthermore, an AGP graphics card can continue to be used even after the purchase of a PCIe model. Although no 3D performance increase is possible, it is certainly true that more displays can be operated simultaneously.


Thanks,

This computer is used for light gaming, so i might just sell which ever i can get the most for.
