Silly question about graphics cards on BH6 / BP6
still looking at a hill of BH6's and a lone BP6... ;-)
and with a general question arises about graphics cards suitable for them... okay - I get that the BH6 and BP6 take AGP 2x cards... BUT while browsing through some older cards online I find what *seems* to be a difference in the AGP connector there is an "L" shape piece at the rear of the AGP connector that appears to be an extension of the card rather than being part of the AGP connector some cards labelled as 2xAGP have this and some of them don't have it examples: WITHOUT http://www.epinions.com/S0403021-AGP-V_2740 WITH http://www.epinions.com/pr-Graphics_...ics_card_50020 okay - I'm confused if they are both 2xAGP, what's the difference ??? do those WITH that fit a BH6 / BP6 ??? only one of the boards donated had a graphics card with it - an unknown brand based on Intel 740 graphics chip - it fits the BH6 AGP slot snugly and definitely doesn't have that L-shaped extension.... thanks for any help for this confused man o_o |
