Default Asus A7N8X deluxe and a Radeon 9600 Pro

I have a Radeon 9600 pro already and am looking for a new motherboard. Does anybody know if a radeon 9600 pro will utilize the agp 8x on an Asus A7N8X deluxe. i ask this because i notice that the 9600 pro says that at 8x its .8v and at 4x its 1.5v. and the A7N8X only supports 1.5v. So will the 9600 go at 8x? only 4x? or will it even work at all with this motherboard?

all help is appreciated


Ian

Yes, it will take advantage of the 8x. I'd check out some Gigabyte motherboards based on nForce2 chipsets, they're excellent.

Run faster than any other chipset out there, except against the new 64bit chips.

If you want a nice fast system that should last at least 2 years ... get an nforce2 chipset Asus A7N8X deluxe 2.
