BFG GeForce 6800 GT OC on AGP Pro???

[icedogg9999]

Hey guys, I just purchased a water-cooled system off ebay,

Koolance Water-Cooled Case (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5113513951&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT)

It came with a Asus A7V33-R motherboard, and it has AGP Pro, my tnt2 pro worked fine in it for testing, and I was wondering can I use my BFG 6800 GT OC in that motherboard? If not, I have a MSI KT4V that will work for sure. But my w/c system is all ready, and I was wondering if I can use my 6800 GT OC with the asus motherboard.

Thanks,

IceDogg

Yes you can use it. That motherboard has a 4x AGP slot on it and the 6800 GT supports 4x/8x AGP. The "pro" part is just an added section that supplies more voltages, usually used in professional cad cards from what I've heard.

oh ok, thanks man, i'm kinda young, so i never heard of agp pro. I just wanted to make sure because I dont want my new $400 GT having any problems lol. Thanks man, off to conintue my water-cooling system :clap:

well, my tnt2 pro & 6800 GT OC both run on the motherboard, but the monitor will not come on, i've tried 2 monitors, same problem. Do you suggest I just buy myself a cheap nforce2 mobo for the system? or do you guys have any other solutions, cuz I'd like to get this mobo to work.

Do you guys know how I could get my TNT2 Pro or 6800 GT to work on this motherboard? I really dont wanna spend $50+ more on a new motherboard, I'd like to get this system up and running this weekend. I don't think its the monitor, but, if anyone have any solutions, i'll give it a shot.

[icedogg9999]

do you guys think it should work, because i can always try it again, but i've tried it multiple times, and its not working :bang head

[icedogg9999]

well, the system still isn't booting up, i've even tried my old tnt2 pro, and it doesn't boot up. Both video cards power on, but no luck.

Any help? :cry:

Are you sure the board isn't fried? How do you know it works?

[icedogg9999]

well, theres a green led on the motherboard that lights up, and i read in the manual online, that the green led means the system is up and running, so, i'm pretty sure the motherboard isn't dead. But i'm probably gonna buy a new nforce2 motherboard next week, around $50 or so, possibly abit.
