I have an old pc without an agp slot. I also have a agp video card.
But, someone told me if i rip the back out of my computer i could use the modem slots to put in a agp video card AND it will work.

Is this completely true or absolutely false?


Also could i fit different ram into my pc? xD

No, it will not work. Also, it's possible to damage your motherboard.

And yes, you can fit a different RAM, but you need to define how different from each other.

Like, if you mean DDR 1 GB to DDR 512 MB, that's fine. But, if you mean DDR to DDR2 or DDR3, it's incompatible.

No way... and what would be the point anyway if you already have an AGP slot why would you want 2?

x2

and by "different ram" different capacity/speed yes, but different generation (ddr, ddr2, ddr3) or different size (204 pin laptop ram or 240 pin desktop ram) won't fit (ddr, ddr2, and ddr3 also have a different pin arrangement)
