    Its a 90degre 1AGP + 2PCI extender
    http://www.mycableshop.ca/sku/PAPTXAGP-64.htm?x=17&y=13

    I want to know if anyone has ever tried it and if so does it have any significant performance lost? I know these extenders are used for rackmount servers which dont really use graphic card but this perticular extender is a circuit rather then a cable so i would think there shoulnt be any performace lost but still i want to know from someone who tried it. It is for a MOD im doing and I will be usinga GeforceFX 5900 and I play games. So that is why i need to know if it will be slower or no difference

    thx

    they are rather well made boards with gold contacts there shouldn't be much of a noticable difference in preformance.

    i would suggest double checking the description and pictures. i tried ordering something from this website and the description was non-sensical and wrong. i tried to call them and they would not answer their phone. :grr:

    yeah they seem pretty lame for technical support because i have sent then en email twice asking for performce lost and i have not received any response. Althought they are not the only ones who sells them so I will mostlikly buy them somewhere else

    but thx for the info

    AGP you maybe be forced to give up 8x on, resulting to 4. If i remember correctly, the pelican case had a custom made riser that wouldn't let the card run above 2x
