i have just purchsed a new motherboard. in the manual it states that i should not connect a 3.3V AGP card to the AGP slot. How do I determine the voltage of my graphics card. It is the card which I used previous to my motherboard dying. Its says its a Radeon 9000 128M DDR TVO on the back and Powered BY ATI on the front.

3.3V refers to older technology of AGP 1x/2x. Not all boards support the old 3.3V AGP.

Radeon 9000 isn't a 3.3V card.

Radeon 9000 is an AGP 8x card. Standard is 1.5V-2.2V for AGP 4x/8x.
