trevormacro Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I will have in few days this adaptor. Pictures : Albatron ATOP AGP8x to PCIexpress16x adaptor will be compatible with AGP4x graphic card ? nb. I think AGP8x slot is compatible with AGP4x card @1,5V but I am not sure. If i test it with agp4x graphic card is it dangerous for adaptor or agp4x card ? The chip under the heatsink : Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 IIRC, compatibility comes mostly down to drivers. Some people on this forum have tested that bridge already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Ney Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 There is a compatibility list afaik, not all cards/drivers are working with such adaptors unfortunately that's why we still use asrock boards and not adaptor like this.

trevormacro Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 IIRC, compatibility comes mostly down to drivers. Some people on this forum have tested that bridge already. Ok for drivers but for graphic card AGP4x AGP 2.0 (1,5 Volts) they can boot with this adaptor no ? According to this website : http://www.directron.com/15agpguide.html, All AGP8x slot ( AGP 3.0 0,8 Volts) are compatible with AGP4x graphics cards ( AGP 2.0 1,5 Volts ). What do you think ?
