Yes many AGP 8x graphics cards are backwards compatible with 4x slots, but its best to check whether the AGP 8x card itself is 1.5V & 0.8V compatible, otherwise voltage incompatibilies may cause problems. A simple google search should get you what you need.

Here are the card requirements:

System requirements:
? Intel Pentium or AMD Athlon or compatible
? 128MB of system memory
? Mainboard with free AGP (4x/8x) slot
? AGP Voltage 1,5V
? CD-ROM drive for software installation
? 400Watt or greater Power Supply


As you can see it will be compatible with your motherboard.
