Ive said Id sort out an old machine for a family member and I was thinking about finding an old graphics card to put in it. Please dont anyone advise me to buy a new motherboard, go quadcore, or insist I need SLI. All I want is to get a bit more life out of a tired machine.
Its an HP and I had a quick look at the serial number on their website for the specifications. It says that it has an AGPx4 slot if I remember correctly, I did check quite a while ago. As AGPx4 cards seem to be incredibly hard to find, does that mean that I can put a x8 card in and just get half the bandwidth out of it or something along those lines, or are they incompatible technologies? Cheers for any help.
