Plz suggest Graphics cards suitable for both AGP and PCIe slots

[midhu]

Hi guys,,

Can any one suggest graphics cards those are compatible with both AGP and PCIexp slots

Thanks in advance ........

There is no card which can work on both PCI-e and AGP.

Although you are right that there is no card as such, but there were was an interface on some ECS motherboards called AGP Express that allowed one to run AGP cards in PCI slots in a motherboard which otherwise only had PCI and PCI-Express slots.

go on design one.

Could you gimme a link of any site which has more details about the same?

AGP Express
Not a true AGP interface, but rather a way to allow an AGP card to be connected over the legacy PCI bus on a PCI Express motherboard. It is a technology found on ECS motherboards, and is used as a selling point for AGP card owners who want a new motherboard but do not want to be forced to buy a PCIe graphics card as well (most new motherboards do not provide AGP slots, only PCIe slots). An "AGP Express" slot is basically a PCI slot (with the electrical power of two) in the AGP form factor. While it offers backward compatibility with AGP cards, its disadvantages include incomplete support (some AGP cards do not work with AGP Express) and reduced performance - the card is forced to use the shared PCI bus at its lower bandwidth, rather than having exclusive use of the faster AGP.
