This motherboard supports PCI Express x16 and AGP8X slots to provide ultimate flexibility for graphics card upgrade. PCI Express & AGP8X combo solution for the price conscious. As for the term RIMM4200 I'm unfamiliar with that terminology, is that the throughput as in DDR333 = 2700? Anyway I usually refer to he 2 most common RIMM specs as RIMM-PC800 and RIMM-PC1066.ĭual-Channel DDR 400/333. Not only that but Rad9700 has a fair number of probs with AGP8x slots on mobos (just as likely a prob with the mobos than the Rad9700) so AGP4x mobos are preferable at this moment in time anyway. In the real world even more than AGP2x bandwidth is hardly needed, so AGP8x is almost pure marketing at this moment in time. Would my video card benchmark performance improve if I chose a mobo that supports AGP8x and DDR400? Well there's only a perf advantage to be had from AGP8x on paper. If instead, I chose a mobo that supported AGP8x and DDR400, then I would be getting a maximum bandwidth of 2.1GB/sec to the North Bridge, which would in turn connect to DDR400 SDRAM with a maximum bandwidth of 3.2GB/sec. This means I'm getting 1.06GB/sec maximum bandwidth to the North Bridge, which in turn has a maximum 4.2GB/sec bandwidth to my RIMM4200 memory. I'm currently running the Radeon 9700 on an Asus P4T533 mobo, which only supports AGP4x.
