Hello! everyone, i will be buying this video card used and it has two notches at the terminal of the card, instead of having one notch at the terminal like most pci cards, i ask the guy that selling it, if he knew if it was for a PCI slot or AGP slot and he didn't know, Does some PCI video cards have two notches at the terminal? Thanks and God Bless!

G'day
Unfortunately you did not mention the brand of the video card that you intend to buy, since it is easier to check the manufacturer's website to find it out, based on the model.
However, as a golden rule, PCI slot video cards have only 1 notch. AGP slot video cards have more than 1 notch (at least 2, 3 for AGP2).
Hope this helps. Good Luck :)

in accordance to the specs i replaced into in a position to discover evidently like it truly is going to have one AGP slot and three PCI slots. (word: present day video playing cards are PCI-E which isn't like common PCI. you'll likely favor to apply the AGP slot if you're making plans to improve the video card.)

you can do it very simply, if its a PCI slot, then it fits in the white slot in your mother board and the distance between the connector and the start of slot is short, if its AGP then the distance is more and it fits in a brown slot usually comes as the first slot in ur Motherboard.

i think VGA cards is for AGP slot whatever notches it have. cause AGP stands for Accelerated Graphic Port.
