My MB requires 1.5 volt video cards which are they?

[Sharpedge]

I just want to make sure I do not screw things up by using the wrong card. I believe all new cards TI4200,4400,4600 are and the Radeons.

Please advise those that are.

Thank you very much

I think all AGP 4X cards run at 1.5V. Of current cards, I know that all GF2, GF3, GF4 cards are AGP 4X, as well as any ATI Radeon card (I'm not 100% sure about the Radeon 7000 but all other are for sure).

The Voodoo 4 AGP I'm not sure of (does anyone actually use this in a gaming machine anymore?), and the V5 definately is not 1.5V.

Neither the V4/5 are AGP 1.5V compliant.

Besides that esentially any board manufactured since the latter half of the TNT2 era is fully AGP 1.5V compliant.
Any card beyond the GF1 and original Radeon is definitely 1.5V complaint, anything older then that youd do well to check the board individually to check.

If it's AGP 4X/8X, it's 1.5V compliant for certain.

As Rand said. If you are planning a new gfx card then choose carefully as it is one area often over-looked and for gaming it is the most vital (64MB system RAM, PII 400mhz CPU etc to one side obviously).

Thank you very much for your input. I have a ti4200 that i am using right now, so i am confident it would work. But an older creative card gforce2 annhilator pro, checking the box it does not say 1.5v but it does have agp 4x.

Again as always I thank you all for your assistance and sharing your knowledge with me. You make my computer building projects a very positive experience.

If its 4X its 1.5V Compliant. If it can run 4X that means it supports AGP 2.0 which means it supports 1.5V.

Sharpedge, as long as you stay away form 3dfx cards, your card will have 1.5V.

Add Kyro cards to that too.
