AGP & PCI are physically and electronically very different. ie. An AGP video card simply won't fit in a PCI slot and vice a versa.
-----Original Message----- From: Simon Martin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 25 July 2002 12:00 To: Unsupported OS X Subject: New graphics cards in older boxes Dear List, Just considering my options for a new graphics card for my old 7500... As all the newer boxes use AGP slots for the graphics cards (am I right?) does this mean that I can't use these cards in my 7500's normal PCI slot or just that they will be running on a slower bus, and otherwise be Ok. Can someone enlighten me as to what my choices are?
