If the card is not fully seated in the AGP connector, an electrical short may result across the AGP connector pins. Depending on the over-current protection of the power supply, certain board components and/or traces may be damaged. NOTE The AGP connector is keyed for 1.5 V and 0.8 V AGP cards only. Do not attempt to install a legacy 3.3 V AGP card. The AGP connector is not mechanically compatible with legacy 3.3 V AGP cards. The AGP connector supports 1.5 V and 0.8 V 8x, 4x, and 1x AGP cards. The desktop board has an integrated AGP card retention mechanism (RM). Installing an AGP Card Follow these instructions to install an AGP card: 1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" on page 27. 2. Place the card in the AGP connector. 3.
