An AGP card is a graphics or display card, which allows your computer to display an output on a monitor.
AGP stands for Accelerated Graphics Port.

AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) is a computer bus designed for video cards. It is faster than PCI, but has been supplanted by PCI-E.
AGP, or Advanced Graphics Port allows the use of a high speed graphics card which can considerably improve performance of the computer video. The AGP slot only provides the possibility of improved graphics, next you need to get a high quality AGP CARD.

AGP is a short for accelerated graphics port. Old computers (well - this depends on how long you have been involved with computers ;-)) have usually one AGP slot which is intended for the use of a graphic adapter. For more information you might want to consult Wikipedia

An AGP slot is a dedicated local bus found on many motherboards. It is used for high-performance video cards.
AnswerThe Accelerated Graphics Port (also called Advanced Graphics Port) is a high-speed point-to-point channel for attaching a graphics card to a computer's motherboard, primarily to assist in the acceleration of 3D computer graphics. Some motherboards have been built with multiple independent AGP slots. AGP is slowly being phased out in favour of PCI Express. AnswerIn computer jargon, AGP means Accelerated Graphics Port, and is used to generate video images based upon graphic generator programs. This is the port commonly used for games, which require that the image displayed on the monitor be calculated from a data stream, rather than simply passed through the computer like a television signal. Many high level gamers prefer to use graphics generated by specialized video/graphic cards, which are added to the motherboard of the computer. These cards have separate processors for decoding and generating video, and are able to create high resolution graphic images at a much faster rate than graphics chips which must rely upon the CPU to process the graphics output. The Accelerated Graphics Port is where these specialized cards are installed on the motherboard, where they are able to receive the graphics data stream prior to it entering the CPU, if I remember correctly.AGP Stands for Accelerated Graphics Port. An AGP port is specifically used to connect a graphics card. For more information on AGP, go here:

AGP was designed to provide a faster interface than PCI for graphics cards. Graphics cards were needing to move more data than the PCI bus could handle. AGP is now obsolete, as data throughput requirements far exceed its abilities. PCI-E 16x 3.0 is the current bus used for graphics cards.

Yes it is when you are speaking in terms of plugging your monitor in the graphics adapter port.

AGP Ports on a motherboard are "Accelerated Graphics Port" and are traditionally used for graphics cards. AGP was used because it provided a direct, dedicated pathway to the CPU and memory rather then using the PCI Bus.
Currently AGP is being phased out for PCI Express which is considerably faster.

Yes, technology has changed quite a bit. Really old graphics card use PCI expansion slots, fortunately most motherboards still have PCI slots. Another expansion slot was invented called AGP (Accelerated Graphics port) used solely for graphics cards. This type of slot is rarely ever found on modern computers. Now graphics cards are installed into the PCI-Express x16 slot.

The expansion slot that uses inbound and outbound data channels called lanes are PCIe. The expansion slot that has replaced the Accelerated Graphics Port on all new motherboards are PCIe.

Fast answer: Place for video card in an older PC.
Long answer: 4x refers to the data transfer rate of the Accelerated Graphics Port, a specialized card slot for video cards. The standard data rate of AGP is 266 MB/s, a 4x slot is 1066 MB/s (compared to todays cards at 8,000)
Hello, a 4x AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) gives you the ability to connect 4x (LCD)(CRT) screens to your computer. for dual monitor. So for instance you can have 4 computer screen on with different things going on each screen.
Hope that helped

They communicate using data Busses using the Chipsets which are the North and South Bridge; the faster components such as the CPU, RAM and Accelerated Graphics Port are controlled by the Northbridge and it communicates to the CPU via the front side buss, the RAM via the Memory Buss and the Accelerated Graphics Port via the Graphics Buss.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northbridge_%28computing%29
The Southbridge communicates to the Hard Disk via the ATA Buss, the USB, PCI and BIOS via the LPC Busses; you may find this opinion differs. the S-bridge may communicate to the PCI via the PCI Buss and the USB via the USB Buss.

No, the AGP port stands for Advanced Graphics Port and was invented because the early PCI connections just weren't efficient enough at running graphics cards. Nowadays, however, they don't really use AGP. It's PCI-Express.
1 answer
If it has 15 pins it is NOT a serial port! A serial port will have either 9 pins (DB-9), or 25 pins (DB-25).
The 15 pin connector (usually blue) is analog video or VGA, and yes if your graphics card is powerful enough it can run dual monitors.
You can either buy a dual port graphics card or a splitter to run dual monitors

If it has an AGP port then no, but if you have the space and its a PCI-e port than yes. Just make sure your computer has enough power to supply to it

Prior to the current PCI Express slots, most peripherals were connected to a PC via PCI slots. PCI is a shared bus. These peripherals could have included a graphics card, a network 10/100LAN card, a sound card, a MIDI card etc. Intel first introduced boards that could connect a graphics card separately through a dedicated slot called an Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP).
So only a compatible graphics card could be connected there. This was done for performance/bandwidth reasons where AGP provided more performance/bandwidth when compared to a PCI slot.
However, with the introduction of PCIE, where lanes and generations provided leapfrogging performance, AGP was obviated on the platform as the cost of supporting an extra port outweighed the benefits of a universal standard slot that could accept any peripheral, not just graphics cards!

If your motherboard already has a VGA port, you do not need an additional graphics card. However, depending upon what you plan to do with your computer you may want one. Some motherboards come with fairly low-end graphics chipsets so if you plan to do much gaming, 3-d graphics or the like, you may find the onboard video is insufficient. The good news is that you can always add one on later if you discover you need one.

The now obsolete AGP slot was used solely for video. The current slots used for video, the large x16 PCIe connectors, can also be used for general PCIe expansion cards.
Sitting in shelf above my head, I still have some PCI and ISA slot video cards: using a general-purpose expansion slot for video is the standard way, and a dedicated graphics expansion slot was a short-term abberation.

sadly this form factor was short lived, up until the release of pci express and 2.0 AGP was the standard for all graphics cards.
