I have a card that supports 8x AGP, an Asus A7N8X motherboard that also supports it, yet I only get 4x. Whats the deal? |

Are you absolutely sure your card is 8X compatible? Have you checked BIOS settings that 8X mode is not disabled?
I have the same motherboard and ATI Radeon 9800SE, works fine for me @ 8X agp setting ![Smile :)](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) |

If you got an nvidia put this in /etc/modules.d/nvidia :
Code: |
options nvidia NVreg_EnableAGPSBA=1 NVreg_EnableAGPFW=1 NVreg_ReqAGPRate=8
|
And use nvagp instead of agpgart |
