I recently bought several components to do a huge upgrade on my pc. I bought a P4P800-E Deluxe mobo, 3.2GHz P4 (w/hyper-threading, 800fsb, 1MB L2 Cache), and an eVGA FX5500 256MB DDR 8x/4x AGP vid card, and 1GB of Dual Channel DDR. I began putting it all together yesterday and thought I'd be up and running in no time but I ran into a little problem. The instructions for my mobo states that it only works with 1.5v vid cards but when I looked at the back of the vid card, the label states that it runs on 2.5v. Before I even bought the vid card, I called a store to ask if that card would be compatible with my mobo and the sales guy said yes. I would think they would be compatible considering that my mobo will take 8x AGP cards and the vid card I bought is a 8x/4x AGP card. Now I'm stuck trying to return this card and find a card that will work with my mobo. Any suggestions?
