Sepertinya pemahaman AGP aperture size disini mengalami sedikit kerancuan, nih 
ane kupi pes dr rojakpot.com

"AGP Aperture Size"
"This BIOS feature does two things. It selects the size of the AGP aperture and 
it determines the size of the GART (Graphics Address Relocation Table).

The aperture is a portion of the PCI memory address range that is dedicated for 
use as AGP memory address space while the GART is a translation table that 
translates AGP memory addresses into actual memory addresses which are often 
fragmented. The GART allows the graphics card to see the memory region 
available to it as a contiguous piece of memory range.

Host cycles that hit the aperture range are forwarded to the AGP bus without 
need for translation. The aperture size also determines the maximum amount of 
system memory that can be allocated to the AGP graphics card for texture 
storage.

Please note that the AGP aperture is merely address space, not actual physical 
memory in use. Although it is very common to hear people recommending that the 
AGP aperture size should be half the size of system memory, that is wrong!

The requirement for AGP memory space shrinks as the graphics card's local 
memory increases in size. This is because the graphics card will have more 
local memory to dedicate to texture storage. So, if you upgrade to a graphics 
card with more memory, you shouldn't be "deceived" into thinking that you will 
need even more AGP memory! On the contrary, a smaller AGP memory space will be 
required.

It is recommended that you keep the AGP aperture around 64MB to 128MB in size, 
even if your graphics card has a lot of onboard memory. This allows flexibility 
in the event that you actually need extra memory for texture storage. It will 
also keep the GART (Graphics Address Relocation Table) within a reasonable size.
