Will someone please tell me that I am not as stupid as the Chaintech support person says I am?
ChainTech GeForce4 ti4200, 4XAGP, 64MB DDR, w/ DVI & TV-Out
Abit BH-6 BX440 AGP 1.0 (3.3 volt per mobo manual)
Abit BX2, rev.2 BX440 AGP 1.0 (3.3 volt per mobo manual)
1. It is my understanding that (even per Anandtech FAQ--thanks Andy) AGP 1.0 and AGP 2.0 are both forward and backward compatible. Correct?
2. Yeah, my mobos are AGP 1.0 and the vid card is AGP 2.0. Yeah, I know the card way outruns the mobo.
3. Per a nice illustrative ATI page, I have situation D which will work?
Nice Illustrative ATI link
4. Chaintech support person insists that my AGP slot will run at 5 volts, and will "burn out the video card".
Please tell me what I am missing here....or what he is missing.
