Purchased 8300 Feb 2004. Intel Pentium 4 processor at 3.0GHz with HT Tech-
nology. Came with Radeon 9800 pro (125mb). The video card is bad, almost positve. The left had side of the monitor has large vertical lines that change
colors, to the point that I can't see things on this side. The right side of the
monitor also has problems with fronts, etc... Note: the monitor works just fine
when i "plug" in to another computer. I took the 9800 pro card out and then
reinstalled it, same crazy screen.
Questions:
1) What type of AGP connector/slot does the Dell 8300 have?
a) agp 3.0, agp 2.0 or a univeral apg?
2) I'm looking at a BFG Tech BFGR76512GSOC 7600 GS 512MB 128-bit
GDDR2 AGP 4X/8X card to replace the old 9800 Pro.
a) will it work with the dell 8300?
b) does the dell 8300 have enough power for this card?
Thank you for your time. Please help.
Sincerely,
