Question on 9800 Pro- AGP Slot standard.

[brucek]

I've just lashed out and ordered a 9800 Pro video card, which shouls be delivered any day now.I did note tonight that my motherboard (ABit BD-7II) has in it's specs "Supports AGP 4X 1.5V device only".I recall having to upgrade my GeForce 2 card to a GF3 at the time I bought the motherboard, as it did not meet the "1.5V" standard, which I understood replaced an earlier standard (different voltage and a different keying arrangement on the AGP slot, as I recall). I also recall that the AGP standard changed when 4X cards (GF3) became available, and hope that it hasn't changed yet again now that the newer standard is 4X/8X.Can anyone conform here that the 9800 Pro will work with my BD-7II, as far as the AGP standard is concerned?Thanks,Bruce.

Just received my new 9800 Pro card, and have found the answer:System requirements include:"...with AGP 8X (0.8V), AGP 4X (1.5V) or AGP Universal 3.0 bus...."So, looks like I'm OK :).Bruce.
