All agp video card that i try with my motherboard preform at half speed. I am currently using an ATI All In Wonder 9600 128mb. I have tryed 3 vid cards and the same problem happens with all of them. I have tryed ati radeon 9200 128mb agp and an Nvidia GEforce 66000 256mb agp and both preformed lower than they should. When I play CS 1.6 i only get 20-30 fps. With my old Radeon 9200 128mb PCI i would get 40-60 fps. My system Specs are:
WinXP Pro SP2
Gigabyte 8I848P-G Motherboard
80gb HDD
1024mb ram (2x256mb,1x512mb)
Celeron 2.6ghz
Ati All In Wonder 9600 128mb AGP (catalyst 6.2)

i think its because your AGP is probally only X2, or X4, if it were X8, then it should perform to its fullest., oh sorry i just checked the specs on ur mobo, and it is a X8, so it could just be that they are faulty cards, or that you did'nt connect them properly.

Then ya sol. Time to get a new board and rma the old one. The only other thing you can try to do is bios upgrade. But if ya trade tree cards then the fault lies with the mobo. Try the bious upgrade..if not yeah have a nice frisbee...even know its square.LOL!

Dude boards are cheap. Thats most likely a 468 socket I believe. These can be found for 50 and under depending on features ya want. Look on ebay is a greta start. Most of the comps I build I buy at dirt cheap prices from ebay sellers. And they have warranties. Or go own on newegg. Just look up ya board to see what socket it is and then go buy a board to match.

yeah its 478. but the thing is i got no cash for a while and i have other things that need buying. im only 16 so cash is kinda scarce and i live in canada so newegg is out of the question.

Ah well tke a look at ebay. Maybe yeah can find a lot of boards for a buck and pick them up. There seems to be a lot of sellers lately from canada selling lots of parts.
