8x agp card on 4x board?

[The__tweaker]

I now a person that claims that the new radeon 9700 with 8x agp does'nt run on a 4x motherboard, this is not true right?
Of course the radeon will be limited to 4x but it still works right?

Although there were rumors that it was gonna have a different pin count and not backwards compatible. It has been confirmed that it will be backwards compatible.

Ok, thx for that info.

All of the radeon cards are capible of running at 8x agp.... but are backwards compatible with 2x and 4x.
