I'm upgrading my old mother board to new one; rest of the hardwares, I'm keeping them. My current graphic card is Radeon 9600xt 256mb, using on AGP 8x slot. Now that my new motherboard has PCI express x16, I was wondering if I can keep using my old graphic card with this new motherboard, or must I get a new one since they aren't compatible.

thanks.
