Solve : Video Card Voltage?

1.	Solve : Video Card Voltage?
Answer» How can I tell the voltage of my video card? I have the eVGA GeForce 6800 GT 256MB in case you don't seem my sig. The motherboard I got does not support 3.3v video cards so I just want to make sure that it isn't 3.3v. TIA Hi Gabriel, the Geforce family and Quadro family based cards operate at AGP 1.5 VOLTS. Some of the older Geforce and Quadro cards follow the AGP 2.0 spec (AGP 4x and AGP 2X) meaning they will operate at 1.5 volts or 3.3 volts. The newer video cards follow the AGP 3.0 spec (AGP 8X and AGP 4x) meaning they will operate UNIVERSAL at 1.5 volts and .8 volts. This operation is negotiated automatically and is not a user defined OPTION. So Game on as it is backwards compatible:) Cheers.Thanks very much. That gets rid of another suspect. Looks like only the monitor remains.Samsung warrenty lasts five years....return to base....if in doubt contact samsung....I believe 3.3 voltage videocards are often fitted with an IDE power connector.
