Question: will 1v agp card work with a 1.5v slot?

My mobo says it only works with agp 1.5v cards. Will a 1v card work? Also what voltage are most vid cards?

Never heard of a 1 VOLT card - just 3.3 and 1.5. If you mean a 1 "X" AGP, no, it will not work, that's a 3.3 volt card.

The V1.0 is version 1.0. 1.0AGP is 2xAGP.TNT2 cards are 2x/4x which runs on 1.5 volts, so that card should work.

That's a budget card with an old chipset. For general use (office, websurfing, etc.) it's a decent card, but if you want to play games it's very inadequate.

It's a lot better than a TNT2.
