Yes, I'm afraid to say that it's transfer cap will be at half the speed as a motherboard with AGP 8x support


That's a very misleading statement, considering his original question. There would be almost no difference between the performance of a 9700 Pro plugged into an 8x AGP bus, or a 4x AGP bus.


Maybe for games released within the past 5 years. :rolleyes:

If you want to have decent quality graphics for the new generation of games without taking a blow in FPS because there's half the bandwidth then if it was AGP8x enabled, go ahead and stick with the outdated AGP4x slot. I recently got a new motherboard just for this reason. AGP4x will soon be obsolete, especially with the rise in production of PCI Express.
