I am getting ready to get a new motherboard, etc. The boards i have been looking at specifically say that the AGP4X slot will only work with AGP cards with 1.5v Signalling (not 3.3v signalling). When i look at graphic card specs, they don't say anything about the signalling voltages. How would I verify that a card would work ok with my new motherboard? I am looking at the ATI radeon cards on their web site, and they just say "AGP2X/4X universal slot". Can anyone help?

My Radeon worked fine with my i850 Mobo (1.5v signalling only) before I upgraded it. Cards that use AGP 4x will tend to use 1.5v.
