The main function of AGP
actually. With the rapid dev
graphic. AGP
supports only memory read/write operation and single-master single-slave one-to-one only. Though AGP and PCI
share the same algorithm of 32-bit, its frequencies are 66MHz and 33MHz respectively.
2X to 8x.
1X AGP, data transfer rate is 66MHz x 4byte x 1 = 264MB/s
2X AGP, data transfer rate is 66MHz x 4byte x 2 = 528MB/s
4X AGP, data transfer rate is 66MHz x 4byte x 4 = 1056MB/s.
8X AGP, data transfer rate is 66MHz x 4byte x 8 = 2112MB/s.

Before talking about ATA (AT Attachment)
CPU devices and access memory directly. DMA specification could not only eliminate the workload of CPU, but also accelerate the
transmission of data. DMA begins with a data transfer rate of 16.6MB/Sec, but afterward developed to new data rate of 33.3MB/Sec,
which is twice the data rate and we called it Ultra DMA.
