Hi People,
I'm having some difficulty understanding compatibility with the various legacy AGP (1x,2x,4x,8x) offerings with regard to mobo<->graphics card. For reference and the source of my confusion <A HREF="http://www.ertyu.org/~steven_nikkel/agpcompatibility.html" target="_new"> THIS LINK </A>
The mobo is an ASUS P3V133 and states
So will this card fry or is it compatible?

The graphics card states:VIA VT82C693A system controller
... with support for AGP 2X mode
I had put the card in the machine and it booted just fine. Didn't go as far as installing an OS before I noticed that the BIOS options only had 1X/2X. I immediately got suspicious because this is a newly purchased card.4X (1.5V), 8X(0.5V) or Universal AGP 3.0 bus configuration 4X/8x
So will this card fry or is it compatible?
