GPU/mobo compatibility question

[FishPolice]

Will the XFX GeForce 6800 GS 256MB GDDR3 work in my son's ancient Abit KR7-A RAID/XP1600+ setup? Seems a great price at £49.99 & hopefully a decent upgrade from his GF3. He will eventually have a decent skt939 system to use it in.

Its an AGP card.

I don't see why it wouldn't work but just thought I'd ask anyway.

I think the mobo is AGP x4. Presumably the card will just downgrade itself to match? The card will be used with an ASRock dual sata in a couple of months anyway
