Can you use the newer 1.5 signaling Video cards on older boards that have a 3 volt signal. Say a G-Force 2 (GTS) model on an older board such as an Asus P3V4X??? TIA!!!

Do you mean Vcc voltage? AGP 1x and 2x is 3V, AGP4x is 1.5V. Most AGP 4x cards are backward compatible, but you may need to change the jumper or risk burning the card and mobo.

The P3V4X will take a GTS fine, it's perfectly suited to either 3.3V or 1.5V cards.
