<div class="IPBDescription">.</div> How much speed will i lose if i get a 8x agp card and put it in my 4x mobo? simple question, hopefully simple answer
Not much. 8xAGP cards don't really use much more bandwidth than the 4x cards, even though they have 2x as much of it. Just out of curiosity, what do you have now (in terms of CPU and GPU) and what do you want to get?
IMO this would make you much happier for less than 30$ more: <a href='http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=14-102-340&depa=0' target='_blank'>Massive fanboy link!</a>
