Mine has a 2x slot - can't remember if it's 1.0 or 2.0. I think it's 2.0. Card is a Voodoo 3 - they don't make them or the drivers anymore I looked at buying a new card and I tried a couple but didn't like them, so I stuck with the Voodoo. I had a nightmare time trying to find cards - some manufacturers just don't produce any information on their cards, and retailers are just as bad. I needed to know which cards where compatible with my system - two different cards with the same chipset would have different compatability specs. I found it difficult - a newbie wouldn't have a hope in hell, and this is where cowboys like PC World make their grubby money.

There are no AGP 8x 3.0 cards that will work in anything less than a 4x 2.0 slot, and AFAIK they all require XP.
