Hi, I am thinking of buying the new "ATI Radeon x800 Pro edition." But i am unsure of whether my Pc is compatible. I know that from looking on the box
That it does say "AGP 4x" Which is seems to show on the on the website of my chipset.
An image of what i think is my motherboard is
I havn't yet opened up my PC, so i am unsure of whether this is my motherboard.
