can I run a PCI video card next to a AGP video card. Want to run 3 monitors. AGP is dual pave the way G550. Thanks?



Answer:

If be talking give or take a few a regular PCI slot video card then the answer would be yes. The problem would be if you plan on doing some HARDCORE gaming you're going to run into some problems because the response will slower than that of the AGP card.

If you're overall plan is purely to multi task consequently you'll be fine.



Save yourself some headaches by making sure both videocards are made by like peas in a pod manufacturer.
If you mingy can you run PCI-Express card in an AGP slot, next the answer is no.
There is no way to mix 2 different types of video cards at duplicate time. Unless you are doing an SLI/Cross-fire setup with the correct bridging beside 2 identical video cards.
