Graphics Upgrade

Can an Accelerated Graphics Port be easily added to a computer? I recently purchased a Nvidia 6200 with Turbocache PCI Express Video Card but when I opened my computer, there was no corresponding slot for the card. I was sure I had an AGP already because my PC is only a few years old. Any ideas?

Help need information about AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port? What is the purpose of the AGP (Accelerated Graphic Port)?

Accelerated Graphics Port? I was wonder if there is a way to get Accelerated Graphics Port (the plastic thing) and put it my motherboard because i just got a new graphic card but my comp is pci. Right the graphic card is im my comp doing nothing b/c i need that little plastic piece, so if i get that thing and put it in my motherboard would my graphic card work? I have like the spot where the plastic thing fit i just need to get one. Damn't it okay what if i get a new mother board would that work? i guess my new card is worthless.

My motherboard doesn't have the Accelerated Graphics Port when it should!!?? Go to this Page and scroll down to the Layout. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=bph07292&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&product=62743&lang=en Apparently my motherboard didn't come with the AGP, Since its a port doesnt that mean there should be something I should plug in there. (Graphics Chip etc) If you scroll down to the Actuall Picture it also doesnt have the "Port" why would it be a port when theres nothing there, EVEN ON THE LAYOUT!

why agp stands for accelerated graphics port while it is a type of bus?

Includes 802.11b wireless adapter card, AC adapter and battery. Battery life aprox ~ 30 min. Fresh install of Ubuntu 8.10. You can always wipe it and install the OS of your choice. Overall in excellent condition. Specifications. The F650's trademark lavender, purple, and gray case measures 1.8 inches high with its lid closed x 12.8 inches wide x 10.3 inches deep, and weighs a substantial but reasonable 7.1 pounds. The unit comes with a 14.1-inch TFT (thin-film transistor) display, 600MHz Intel Mobile Pentium III processor, 64MB of RAM (it has a total capacity of 256MB), and a 12GB Fujitsu hard drive. It also includes the speedy IEEE 1394 high-speed serial interface (Sony calls it i.LINK) for users that want to work with data-intensive accessories like camcorders. Other standard equipment includes an integrated 8X Toshiba DVD-ROM drive and a modular 1.44MB floppy diskette drive, both of which reside along its right edge. If you don't need to take your floppy drive with you, you can pull it out and replace it with an optional second battery to complement the F650's standard 14.8-volt Li-Ion (lithium-ion) power cell. An internal 56Kbps (kilobits per second) modem and an ATI Technologies RAGE Mobility video chipset round out its feature list nicely. The video controller comes with 2X AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) support and 8MB of video memory. Lol thanks, that was what I was looking for. They're asking $80 so I figured it was trash.

i need a new video card? i need a new vid card for my computer. the old one was an ati radeon x1900xt. i don't know if its a pci or agp. i think it is agp though. i look in the manual of the motherboard and on its schematics i see that it has 3 pci slots and an accelerated graphics port (AGP?). the specs say that the pci slots are spec 2.2. the agp specs are "1 agp slot, agp 3.5 compliant, supports 1.5V, 8X / 4X agp card." i don't know what to tell the guys when i go into the store to get the card that will be compatible for me, if you need any other info please let me know

If I add a 2nd monitor to my single graphics card, will the overall performance decrease? This is for a Mac Pro with a Radeon x1900 (512mb VRAM), so it's not a slow machine or card by any means. The card has 2 DVI ports on it and it supports dual monitors. I have a 23" right now on 1 port, and was thinking about adding another 23" to the other port (same GPU card). My question is, does this basically then divide up the card into almost 2 sections, with it now having to do twice the work, so the overall FPS on games, OpenGL, or anything GPU accelerated would be decreased? I'd imagine so, because I don't see how else it could do it unless there is just a whole subsystem sitting on the card for the 2nd port that's not currently being used? Thanks If possible, please give a brief description of why it will or won't happen (I'm very curious)....

LAPTOP EXPERT REQUIRED to help me choose a University laptop please!? So I have a few weeks before I go off to University to study architecture. I have my specifications for the laptop that I need and I don't have a specific budget, but the cheaper the better. I would say around £500 if possible, but I do need a good quality laptop. The specs are: - MUST BE A WINDOWS LAPTOP (no macs) - Preferably Dual Core or Quad Core - min 2Ghz processor - Accelerated graphics processor (preferably NVIDIA or ATI) - RAM min 2gigs - Built in WiFi - Ethernet ports (RJ45) - Video port for monitors/projectors - min CD/DVD drive The longer the battery life the better (but not a deal breaker), the laptop should be able to handle running AutoCAD/Ecotect/etc (so an average size sceen is needed). Any suggestions welcome! Thanks Those specs were sent to me by the Built Environment department of my University.

(and to be honest I really dont want to, I have many bad experinces with opening a PC) This will not be a gaming computer I will primarily use it for word, surfing and watching films, but I really wanted to play Crysis because of all the hype.

gaming console what do you like better ps3 or xbox 360? Overview of the Playstation 3 - What's So Amazing? The big deal with the Playstation 3 is that it sports Sony's new Cell Processor that was jointly developed by IBM, Sony Group and Toshiba Corporation. It also features a new graphics processor (RSX) co-developed by NVIDIA Corporation and SCEI, and XDR memory developed by Rambus Inc. To really rub it in, it also adopts BD-ROM (Blu-ray Disc ROM) with maximum storage capacity of 54 GB (dual layer), enabling delivery of entertainment content in full high-definition (HD) quality, under a secure environment made possible through the most advanced copyright protection technology. To match the accelerating convergence of digital consumer electronics and computer technology, PS3 announced support for high quality display in resolution of 1080p in addition to 720p/1080i. The computational power of the system itself sports the equivalent of 2 teraflops, meaning that entirely new graphical expressions that have never been seen before will become possible. In games, not only will movement of characters and objects be far more refined and realistic, but landscapes and virtual worlds can also be rendered in real-time, thereby elevating the freedom of graphics expression to levels not experienced in the past. Gamers will literally be able to dive into the realistic world seen in large screen movies and experience the excitement in real-time. If you saw the E3 video - real time game engines now look about as good as the Final Fantasy movie. Overview of the Xbox 360 - First to Market and Media Center Dominance? While the Playstation 2 had a much beter presentation, giving consumers a really in-depth look at the software and hardware behind the name, Xbox chose instead to utilize the MTV venue for making its big announcement. Details were scarce and game footage, scarcer, but the Xbox 360 didn't fail to impress those who managed to weed through the marketing hype and glean some interesting facts from the presentation. Microsoft is positioning the Xbox 360 console as the center of a digital connected home - providing much more than just game play. The way they are talking about it, it almost seems like it could even supplanting the Media Center PC. Powered by a custom-made IBM PowerPC-based three-core chip running at 3.2GHz, and supported by 512MB of GDDR3 RAM, the new Xbox has the raw processing power to deliver more than all but the most hot-rodded PCs can today. Video and graphics performance is powered by a new ATI GPU running at 500MHz, with 10MB of embedded DRAM. The Xbox 360 will ship with a 12X dual-layer DVD-ROM drive, no announcements for HD-DVD or Blu-ray Disc integration has been inferred or announced. In addition it has three USB 2.0 ports, two memory unit slots (unspecified), and support for four wireless game controllers (unspecified whether Bluetooth or IEEE 802.11g). It supports progressive-scan DVD movies and nearly all DVD and CD formats with the notable exception of DVD-Audio and SACD. Users will be able to use the Xbox 360 as a "home base" for their digital media files and can rip MP3s to and from portable media devices or Windows XP PCs, as well as rip music to the Xbox's detachable (and upgradable) 20GB hard drive. For networking, the Xbox 360 includes a built-in ethernet port and support for 802.11a, b, and g flavors of Wi-Fi. If Microsoft can position the Xbox 360 as a great gaming machine as well as an effective Media Center it may be on to something big. Lets compare the two platforms below, paying attention to GPU and CPU specs as well as format and connectivity options and support. What do you think?? xboxs red rings alot and the playstation has been around alot more.. in my opinion i like the ps3 better but i want to hear what you think???
