mode AGP slot. It can be switched between AGP 2X(3.3V) or 4X(1.5V)
mode by adjusting the jumper. The factory default for this card is 2X(3.3V).
The GA-8S648FXM (or any AGP 4X/8X only) motherboards might not func-
tion properly, if you install this card without switching the jumper to
4X(1.5) mode in it.
Example 2: Some ATi Rage 128 Pro graphics cards made by "Power Color",
the graphics card manufacturer & some SiS 305 cards, their golden finger
is compatible with 2X(3.3V)/4X(1.5V) mode AGP slot, but they support
2X(3.3V) only. The GA-8S648FXM (or any AGP 4X/8X only) motherboards
might not function properly, If you install this card in it.
Note : Although Gigabyte's AG32S(G) graphics card is based on ATi Rage
128 Pro chip, the design of AG32S(G) is compliance with AGP 4X(1.5V)
specification. Therefore, AG32S(G) will work fine with SiS

motherboards.
