AGP or PCI???

[dcsonic2k]

I have a emachines 400i and I want to upgrade the graphics card. Does anybody know what kind of card I have to use (AGP or PCI)? Thanks.

Open the case, and check if there is AGP slot. If so, I'd get the AGP.

You won't have much choice but to go AGP if you want the newer cards since they mostly make AGP.

I think Geforce cards are all AGP and TNT/TNT2 was the only one they made both AGP and PCI.

Could be wrong but that's basically it

an Emachine probably has onboard video, which means PCI. And if you do get a PCI, you can stick it in anything, even without an AGP slot, not so for the AGP.

And with an Emachine, I doubt you're really looking for a cutting edge vid card, I'd suggest a Voodoo3 2000 PCI. And they don't take any advantage of AGP anyway.
