Connecting AGP 8X Expansion Slot

AX4SG Max II / AX4SPE Max II provide an AGP 8X slot, a sky blue slot having the
latest AGP specification on motherboard. The AGP 8X is a bus interface targeted
for high-performance 3D graphic. Traditionally AGP used both rising and falling
edge of the 66MHz clock for 4X AGP, and the data transfer rate could achieve
66MHz x 4bytes x 4 = 1056MB/s. Now AGP is moving to AGP 8X mode, which is
upgraded to 66MHz x 4bytes x 8 =2.1GB/s. You can also adjust AGP voltage in
BIOS with range from 1.5V to 1.875V. For AX4SG Max II, the AGP slot can
automatically recognize an AGP or a Multiplexed Intel DVO Output depending on
which cards being inserted, such as AGP, or ADD (AGP Digital Display) cards. With
an ADD card implemented to this slot, Multiplexed Intel DVO output will provide
high-speed digital connection for digital displays or TV-OUT functionality.
Warning:
not adjust AGP/PCI voltage/clock when
you connect SATA device. It is because
when the voltage/clock for AGP/PCI is
adjusted, the SATA clock cannot remain
at 100MHz, and the system will
therefore be unstable.
It is strongly recommended
Warning
recommended not install
a 3.3V AGP card, which is
not supported by Intel
865G / 865PE chipsets
on this motherboard.
