Your X2 will probably devote an entire core to asking you why you're neutering it with such a dog of a video card - but yes, it should work.

Yes, it'll work.

I am sorry, I am little dumb in building pc
the new agp card say it support ddr memory so it stuck in my mind that it may not work so I am posting here to verify and check with you guys (computer geeks 🙂 )
I really need to know the honest answer quick, if it does'nt support then ATI shop offer $50 off new card trading program.
My mobo/cpu = msi k8n neo2 platinum with amd 64 4800 x2 coming soon on mail and it gonna reach here on thursday from newegg.com 🙂
thanx once again

Now are you going to use that old video card as just a substitute till you get something better? I mean wow your hypertransport bus will just BLOW up when it sees that on your computer LOL

 

[rajhouston]

are you serious? will it mess up my mobo and cpu?
do you recommend me buying new card for safety of my new mobo and cpu processor?
i am thinking of buying ALL-IN-WONDER? 9600 128MB AGP
what do u think?

I think so, that mobo does have an AGP slot.

The combination seems a little unbalanced, but if you don't need to run a high-resolution monitor or do any 3D work at all I guess it will work.

I use 19 inch LCD monitor
and i run resolution of 1280 x 1024 pixels
I do watch movies on this video card a lots, but will i be able to watch movies on new mobo/cpu with this old video card? or do i need to buy new one? old agp card have sdram memory and new one i notice have ddr memory.. does it matter? will it mess up my new mobo and cpu?
any advice is highly appreciated..
thanking you

The card should work just the same as it does now.

If you are happy with the card, keep using it.

Basically the 7500 is basic at best.......if you don't play games then it is a reasonable card for general productivity i.e office apps, email, watching videos etc....but if you plan on playing any newer games then an upgrade will be required!

If it's got an AGP slot on the board, yes. My ATI Rage 128PRO would work in that board (Circa 1999/early 2000) because it supports 4X AGP which IS required.

 

[rajhouston]

kool thanx to all

I've played Flight Simulator 2004 on a 7500 with quality settings. It was flawless. The 7500 will be a preferred choice over integrated graphics, since it will take a good amount of workload off of the CPU itself.

What the DDR memory compatibility is trying to imply, is that the card works well with SD and DDR RAM.

You can run 3D apps, but for 2004/2005 titles, you will have to lower resolution support and lessen the quality of the application for more aggresive titles.
