I was wondering if i could use my Nvidia video card with the A8N-SLI deluxe motherboard.






P.S Is a flatscreen better for gaming or a regular one?

When you talk about an A8N-SLI, the "SLI" refers to pairing up two PCI-Express video cards together to run simultaneously.

If you really want to keep your AGP card, find a different motherboard.

Well while the motherboard affexts system performance it is not the bigest factor concerning gaming and graphics. If you mean AGP slots then at the moment there inst a realo difference as the cards dont make much use of the extra speed found in the newer PCI-E slots but they do make use of the extra power that can be provivded via the slot. But they no longer produce new gfx cards for the AGP slot and have moved over to the PCI-E slot cards only. AGP cards are still available however they are suplied in fewer and fewer numbers and will become harder to find in a few years.
