SWEET THAN! Im getting my 6800GT on 4x mmmmmm so now thats stupid... why all them companies only shows 6800 GT on AGPX8 ........ that really got me pissed when i firsts saw --- SUPPORTS AGP 8X

There's probably no difference between AGP 4x and AGP 8x.

My car supports going 140mph, does not mean it wont go 60.

so does mine! but its a ford ka and i strongly doubt it will do 140, man it struggles beyond 90, i hate fords cheap ways of using the same speedo for pretty much every car....focus, mondeo, maverick, galaxy, probe the lot all have 140 on the clock....doubt any of them can actually do it

mines a Pontiac Gran Prix GT 3.8, I have only takes it to 115, it did alright but 80 is the sweet spot.

A motherboard that only supports AGP 4X probably isn't exactly brand new. The X800 Pro and 6800GT are powerful enough video cards that in many cases they are limited by your cpu. So, if you are running older hardware with a slower cpu you should probably upgrade that along with your video card or you may be able to save some money on a slightly lesser video card and still get decent results. Of course, if you're planning a future upgrade within the nexe year that is good also. I just wanted to mkae sure that you knew that while the card could run at AGP 4X no problems, you can see a serious performance reduction running it with a slower cpu.
