Geforce3 and nforce2?

Hello

I'm thinking of upgrading my system with a MSI K7N2. Now I'm not sure if my Geforce3 Ti200 will work with the AGP slot. Can someone elighten me please?

Thanks
Meph

well.. all AGP slots are the same, from when they first got out - to now. so dont let that stop you. the newer agp slots are a bit faster (AGP 8x) but they are also fully backward compatible.

AGP is AGP maybe the one component can go faster then the other ... but it should always work

actually i had some problems before trying to use a geforce 2 gts 32mb ddr on a p2 233. It would lock up the system and half the time wouldn't display. Never could figure out how to fix it either. The card was agp 4x and the pentium 2 was a max of agp 2x.

Thanks for your answers!

I'm asking because in the specs of the K7N2 Delta ILSR it says sth. about AGP 1.5V only which confused me. So the GF3 has no problem with 1.5V?

1,5 Volt is the AGP slot Voltage .... its always 1,5V unless you change it

It will definitely work as I had a bad flash of my GeForce FX 5600 and had to temporarily use a GeForce 3 Ti 200 card in it's place while I extracted various files from my hard drive in order to recover the original BIOS! I have the K7N2GM-L (MS-6777) mainboard.

AGP slot can takes every AGP card, That is why the name "AGP" (accelerate graphic port) it is mainly for graphic board. The instability problem of your may be fixed by update motherboard driver and graphic driver or adjesting the AGP Voltage.

Actually, not all agp slots were the same. Agp 1.0 was 3.3v. Agp 2.0 is 1.5 volt. plugging an early agp card into a 4x/8x port can fry the mobo. His ti200 is agp 2.0 and will work fine on an nforce2 board.

I guess that's the thing the manual was referring to.
Thanks for the advice!
