auggybendoggy March 10, 2004 Share auggybendoggy Member March 10, 2004 I read a couple articles saying 8x did nothing at all. is this just a marketing hype? My MB has a 4x 2.0 agp slot so I am wondering if I should upgrade to a 800 mhz bus p4 with a 8x slot. I am using a 1.6 p4 agp 4x is this worth it or should I wait for pci express?

Birdman March 10, 2004 Share Birdman Member March 10, 2004 if you are upgrading just for the 8x agp slot then dont do it. If upgrading means a new SATA harddrive, AGP 8X, 800Mhz FSB, Hyperthreading Support, GigaBit LAN Then id say go for a new mobo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All Kill3r March 10, 2004 Share All Kill3r Member March 10, 2004 (edited) just read over this http://www.madshrimps.be/?action=getarticle&articID=126 not about 4x v 8x agp but shows diffence between a high end card and a lower end card.
