Hello everyone one,
I am thinking of buying the ABit IT7. It has everything I need including 4 channel RAID.
However, it does not support AGP 8X, and I don't know how concerned to be about this considering that the next generation of cards I believe support AGP 8X.
The question I have is this (and I know that it's all going to be largely based on theory) : How much of a performance hit will there be by running the next generation of cards at only AGP 4X. I assume this can be likened to a similar debate that was probably had then AGP 4X superceded AGP 2X.
There is no point in me buying a motherboard that is totally going to bottle neck the graphics performance of the next generation of cards. Anyone help me here ?
many thanks,
Ashley
