P4C800-E Delux and Matrox P650
Ok group ... Thinking about using the P4C800-E Delux with a Matrox P650
dual head card (sw development, not gamer). The motherboard manual specifically states "AGP 2 (8X) cards with 0.8V or 1.5V cards", but I can't find anywhere in the Matrox literature that says it complies with these voltage levels. Are the Matrox voltage levels correct for the motherboard and if so, has anyone tried it? Thanks Tom Woodrow www.dacworks.com |

Are the Matrox voltage levels correct for the motherboard and if so, has anyone tried it? Thanks Tom Woodrow www.dacworks.com I think the P4C800 is a 1.5V only motherboard. It should have a key in the 1.5V only position. Since the Matrox supports 8X, it operates at 0.8 volts, and will at least be keyed to work with 1.5V motherboards. Whether it also has the 3.3V key slot cut in it or not, won't affect you (unless you are planning on sticking this card in an older motherboard, which is 3.3V operation only - then you really need an answer to this question). Since info on the web is sparse (I couldn't find any reviews of the card, so couldn't even find a detailed picture of the card), you should visit the tech support forums at matrox.com . During normal business hours, the tech support people will answer your forum questions - their offices are in Dorval, Quebec, Canada. Paul |
