I really don't know if it works or not because i'm planning to buy a new motherboard and a new processor but I want to keep my video card|||AGP and PCI Express 16x slots are not compatible. There have been motherboards that have both an AGP slot and a PCI Express 16x slot, though I'm not sure how many of them are around now. (AGP's on it's way out IMHO.)
Think this is the only Intel CPU motherboard on Newegg that supports both AGP and PCI Express 16x on the same board:

However it only supports 2 GB of memory. (It does however support either DDR or DDR2. It's a real jack of all trades, master of none board. Though I imagine this motherboard would end up getting replaced in a year or two as memory requirements go up.)|||No you can't. The slots are technically different.|||No you can't because the frequency multiplier at AGP is max 8x, but at PCI xpress is 16x. The two cards also uses other technologies to create image.|||No, that is why there is two different kinds.
Also it will be hard to find a new motherboard that isn't PCI-E.|||No you cannot. The pin out is different for the AGP acards and will not even fit in a pci slot...|||Hi,
The simple answer is you can't sorry.
If you want to keep your agp card then you need to buy a motherboard with that slot on it.
