What kind of video card port do I have?

‎02-14-2009 02:23 AM

Simple enough, is it an AGP, PCI, or PCIe, because I'm going to install a second monitor, and my video card can barely handle the one I have now.

Thanks in advance.

Unable to tell you what type of slots you have. What is your PC model number?

 

You can have all 3. AGP, PCI, and PCIe.

 

Save time and type your model number in and then click Product information and click on the motherboard specifications. Scroll down and look at the picture and slot info.

Oh, my bad!

It's an m8200n.

I'm guessing that it has all three as well, it's not too dated...

Best deal right now is the $50 9600GSO.  You can easily overclock this GPU another 20%.  Don't think.  Just buy it.  Will go out of stock soon.
