4x agp VS pci (not pci-e)

mrreality13 · 07-02-2007, 09:03 PM

Hi all,
I have 2 video cards to choose from
my MB agp is only 4x

1) ati 9550 w/128 ram as well as tv out(agp)

2) nvidia geforce fx 5500 w 256 ram/tv out(PCI)(not pci-e)

which one will work better,and i do want to use the tv out on it..

i know that nvidia has better support BUT will the pci slot hamper me over an 4x agp slot??

((the rest of my box p4 2.0//768 pc2100//250gig segate 7200 rpm ))

thanx in advance!!

Take the first one.

AGP is pretty much better tham PCI and a GPU will use all BUS speedy that it can, so, take the AGP one.
