AGP Capability

Common Options : Auto, 1X Mode, 2X Mode, 4X Mode, 8X Mode

Quick Review

This BIOS feature is only found in AGP 8X-capable motherboards. AGP 8X is backward-compatible with earlier AGP standards. This BIOS feature allows you to set the motherboard's maximum supported AGP transfer protocol.

It is recommended that you leave this BIOS feature at its default setting of Auto. This allows the motherboard to set the appropriate AGP transfer protocol based on the graphics card's AGP support detected during the booting up process.

However, the other options are useful if your graphics card has problems using the detected AGP transfer protocol. You can then manually select a slower AGP transfer protocol to solve the problem.
