  1. I have a Nvidia Geforce Fx 5200 in one of my retro computers. And want a bigger card. What Nvidia cards suits AGP 8x? Usual DDR.

    The card must have 3 pins.

    What video output ports do you want? What is the maximum amount that you are willing to spend on a new video card? A better and more recent NVIDIA AGP card than the one you have that still works will be hard to find and it will not be cheap.

  3. I want at least one DVI and one Vga. Yes i know the problem. The most cards has 2 pins or DDR2. I guess the 256mb cards also needs more power? Around 50.

    The cutouts in an AGP card's motherboard connection have to do with the voltage that the card requires. The cuts prevent someone from installing a card in an AGP slot with the wrong voltage, which could damage the card. Your NVIDIA Geforce Fx 5200 was keyed with 2 cutouts so, apparently, it could be installed in a motherboard with either a 1.5 V or a 3.3 V AGP slot.

    I was looking for NVIDIA GeForce 7000 series cards, which were the last AGP video cards made by NVIDIA. The AGP version of those cards is harder to find and more expensive, particularly if the card is in good shape. Some of them had 2 DVI connections.

    If the Palit Geforce FX5600XT 256MB DDR AGP really is in good condition, it should work.

    I don't think I can be helpful to you. You probably know more about AGP graphics cards and the sources that sell them in Sweden than I do.
