upgrading a graphic card

[wouldubethere]

my system is: p4 1.7ghz on intel d850md board(updated to latest bios from intel website) and riva tnt 2 m64 agp card installed.
[b]can i upgrade to geforce fx 5200 baesd agp cards since my board supports only agp 2.0 based cards with 1.5 volts(3.3v legacy cards not supported)??[/b]

i think it should support coz these cards do support agp 2x the specifications u should have for these cards r the following


Minimum System Requirements: Pentium® II/Celeron™, AMD® K6-2/Duron® or compatible. AGP 2X or AGP 2X/4X universal slot. 32MB of system memory. Installation software requires CD-ROM drive. DVD playback requires DVD drive. Recommended Pentium® 4/III or AMD® Athlon®. 128MB of system memory.

hope this helped
cheers

i think u can use higher voltage card but u have to connect it to the smps seperately using one of those cables that also go into the drives...

and does 1.5v mean 4x or 2x agp?how do i find out if mine is 2x or 4x?
