Hello

Please help. I am going to buy a new video card but I don't know whether my
motherboard supports 4x AGP or not. My mobo is a Gigabyte GA-7IXE4 socket A
and the chipset is AMD 750 (AMD 751 PCI/AGP controller). I have the mobo
manual but it does not specify which AGP (2x or 4x) it supports. How can I
tell? Please help.

Also, if it turns out that the mobo supports only 2x AGP, is it better to
buy a 2x AGP vga card or a 4x AGP vga card?

Thank you
Samad
