You can get 4X AGP cards such as ATI Radeon 7000 (64MB)-Rs.927/-, Club-3D Radeon 8500 LE (64MB)=Rs.1,252/-, Matrox Millennium G550 Dual (32MB)=Rs.1,159/-, Matrox Parhelia 512GPU 128Mb DDR DVI Tvout AGP4X.

All these are AGP 4X compliant. You can go for them..

Most of the AGP 8X cards are backward compatable which means you can run them at lower speed.
Shovik u could easily add this line :)

I have an ASUS A7N266-VM Motherboard, AGP-4x Slot, 512 MB DDR RAM, 300W intex power supply, I bought a BIG GeForce 6200 256 MB 64-bit 3d Card. I dont know if my computer supports it. I tried putting it into the AGP 4x slot. The Computer did not boot up at all, but the fans were working. When I removed the Graphics Card, the System booted up.

Please Help

8X is backward compatible, I think, get any 8x/4x card preferably mentioned with 4x as well.
Anyway what rig do you have?

I doubt you will be able to play anything decently with that old a rig anyway, not much of a point, you will need to upgrade everything.

You can use an 8x card.
It means that the card is supported by speeds upto 8x.
Like 48x CD-Writer can write CDs labeled 52x but at 48x speed.
Similarly 8x cards work at 4x speed on 4x AGP slot.

go for geforce fx5200 or 5700.fx 5200 runs in AGP4X surely,(i had used it in AGP4X).Check it before buying fx5700,though most probably it also runs

Two cards that I can confirm running on this motherboard are the Geforce FX5200 and the ATI Radeon 9600(Non-pro verison) cards.Some of the newer lot of AGP 8X cards are doubtful on running due to AGP voltage regulations.Do check before you buy a mid end card like 6600GT.The bandwidth loss won't be that high but still you'll get a decent amount of performance provided you have sufficient ram to compliment the card.
