4.7 Usage of the AGP slot
The Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) is a high-performance bus, especially for graphic-inten-
sive 3D applications. AGP is independent of the PCI bus, and is intended for exclusive use
with graphics devices.
The most important feature of AGP is DIME (Direct Memory Execute). DIME needs to allocate
some system memory via the OS to access large textures outside the local graphic memory of
the card. In order to take advantage of the DIME feature, some software components should
be installed or upgraded within your system.
