Is an AGP 4x/8X graphics card compatible with PCI Express 16x slot?

Hi Everyone,

I've purchased a new microprocessor and I need to buy a motherboard for it. However, I have a AGP 4x/8x graphics card (ATI RADEON 9600 Pro). My question is, can I plug it into a PCI Express 16x slot? The new technology motherboards come with those PCI Express slots. I have been searching this on the web for couple of hours but couldn't find any answer. Thanks a lot for the answer.
 
Thanks for the answers guys. Alright then here is another question. The micoprocessor that I've purchases is an Intel P4 530 3.0GHz which requires an Socket T connection with the motherboard. Can you recommend me a good motherboard has socket T connection + AGP 8x + low price🙂)?
 
Here's a nice one for 115 bucks. If you don't mind spending a bit more money (and I know you said low price, but what the hell) this is a good one too, but for 168.
 
Another thing is I am not sure if my processor (P4 530 3.0GHz LGA 775) is compatable with the chipset i875P + ICH5R. Is there a motherboard that has 915P chipset + AGP 8x/4x features? Thanks a lot for the replies I really appreciate.
