Help with AGP cards

[chrisbradley]

I have just bought an ATI Sapphire X800 SE 256MB Graphics card.

It is an 8x and my motherboard says 4x (i think)will it work??

Thanks

Yes, it should work. It just won't be able to transfer data at its top speed.

thank you so much but will it be able to run new games at good graphics.

Yes, it should be fine. I have a 6600GT AGP 8x in a 4x motherboard and play HL2, Doom3, FarCry just fine with great graphics.
