Matrox Parhelia LX P650 vs Mainstream ATI or NVidia

#11

I could not find information about the AGP voltage required to use a G400
Max. I suspect it is 3.3v. My Asus A7N8X requires graphic cards with 1.5v
AGP. That would be really too bad.

I would appreciate if someone could confirm this. Thank you!

I am using my G400 MAX on a A7N8X boards. No problems at all.

I have also used a plain G400 PCI card without any problems.

Not with Win XP I add but it works with Linux and Windows 2000.

Hope this helps

Technically, I understand that all G400s can operate at 1.5V, but older cards
don't properly signal the motherboard that they can.

This problem was only on G400Max cards... all other G400s are 1,5V
signaling capable.

There is a fix that can

reportedly correct that problem, but I've never been able to get a clear and
concise step-by-step explanation on how it's done. It involves grounding
