Radeon 32mb Voltage


My dad currently has one of these video cards.
32 mb SDR
32mb DDR

I'm not sure which one or if it will matter.
He wants to upgrade his MB and CPU so I need to find out if these
video cards are 1.5v or if he needs to upgrade to a newer video card.
The ATI site does not tell what voltage they are.

There will not be any games on this sytem (other than bejeweled) so he wants
to keep his card if possible.

2 in the morning.

Anyway try to find out what is the data transfer rate is, if it is at 4x if the current board supports it, it will work on a newer board, if it isn't and the board has support for 4x it probably won't run on a newer board. (cpu-z will tell you the data transfer rate, it's under the mobo tab)

a radeon sdr or ddr should work on any modern day board with the exception of PCI-express boards. They are AGP 4x and all the boards I've seen today that are agp are 4x/8x boards. 1.5v is agp 8x and i believe 3.3v is 4x can anyone confirm this? None-the-less the board should handle it just fine, don't worry.
