IMPORTANT: If using PCI cards on shared slots, make sure that the drivers support “Share IRQ” or that the cards do not need IRQ assignments. Conflicts will arise between the two PCI groups that will make the system unstable or cards inoperable.

3.6.3 Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP 4X)

This motherboard provides an accelerated graphics port (AGP 4X) to support a new generation of AGP graphics cards with ultra-high memory bandwidth.

P4T-CM Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP)

IMPORTANT: Only 1.5V AGP cards are supported. ASUS® AGP 4X cards are rated for both 1.5 and 3.3 Volts. Early AGP cards only operate at 3.3 volts and will not fit properly into the new AGP 4X slots. See examples of both types below:
