From: HDI on 8 Apr 2008 10:18 Hi, I hope someone can help me. In my P4 I've got a Nvidia Geforce 2 mx 200 AGP card and I want to replace it with a matrox millenium G550 dual monitor card. If I'm right the new matrox millennium G550 will fit perfectly in my agp slot port because they are both universal AGP cards. Can anyone confirm this before I buy this new card? Thx

Notice that some Matrox models, existed as two different standards. So for some Matrox products, you have to be much more careful. http://www.playtool.com/pages/agpcompat/agp.html Matrox used to have a forum, where issues like this may have been discussed. But they closed that forum. The G550 is listed here, as being OK. On the G400, you have to check the part number for "4A" to be safe.
