Hello,

My friend needs to update his system but would still like to use his old graphics card. At least until he can save money for a new one. So would his card work in a ASRock 939Dual -SATA2?

TIA

Reapsy.

why is he buying an AGP motherboard anyway?? AGP is quickly dying. it would be better he spend a little on a new PCI-e card such as a 6200.

The board has both agp and pci-e slots, and is cheaper than other PCI-E boards.

My AGP card suddenly died on the day PCIE boards were available for retail. I'm still trying to figure out how to SLI my two nforce2 integrated video adapters. By the way will this give me TSAA or do I need nforce4 boards for that? ;)

i asked those questions because his questions were already answered and I didnt want any echoes in here. it makes perfectly good sense i asked him why he was going in for an AGP mobo rather than a PCI-e especially since we're not seeing NV or ATI produce AGP cards for their nextgen, so how about you "STFU".

You need special capacitors on you board for that, the flux kind ;) .

The AGP is not dying...the performance between a 6800Ultra AGP and PCIe shows little or no difference.

what I meant was that AGP is being phased out!!! not comparing the performance difference between the 2.
