Answer 1

AGP 8x is better than PCI. PCI came first, then AGP, now PCI Express. (more and more data can be transferred with each successive version). For a more detailed explanation on videocards, see:

Different Card Types

Video cards come in three different connector types: PCI, AGP, and PCI Express. The slots all look different and are easily identifiable from each other. PCI these connect into the often white slots of your Motherboard, they have been common on motherboards since the early 1990's they replaced the ISA standard. AGP Often brown connectors were introduced as they allowed four times the bandwidth over PCI. Most AGP video cards are now designed to work only with the newer AGP 2.0 and 3.0 standards. PCI Express often shortened to PCIe is the latest technology designed to replace AGP and work with the main board systems to allow larger amounts of bandwidth to be transferred which results in a new level of graphics and system performance.
