I HEAR YA PAPPY... TAHTS WHY IM ON WATER

THE TOP BROWN PORT IS YOUR AGP PORT.... JUST BUY AN AGP CARD AND STICK IT IN TAHT SLOT... AND IT WILL LINE UP WITH NE OF THE SLOTS IN THE BACK THEN JUST SE A SCRW TO HOLD IT DOWN IN THE BACK OF THE CASE.... FROM THE LOOKS OF THE BOARD IT SHOULD SUPPORT AGP4/8 SO ANY CARD SHOULD WORK...

IF YOUR LOOKING HIGH END... THEY JUST RELEASED AN ATI 3850 AGP... AND THAT WILL PROBABLY BE ABOUT THE BEST GPU YOU CAN GET FOR THE AGP BUS....

That's the truth. For the price of my exhaust system and headers I could have built a sweet gaming rig, or for the price of the Radix about 3 Awesome gaming rigs. You can mod PC's to the hilt, and adjust the "Horsepower" level by adjusting the CPU and GPU frequencies! 6.0L pullout motor = $1200.00, or Intel E8400 CPU = $220. Quite a bit cheaper.
