Oops.  That "PCI" should read "AGP".  Acronym confusion...

That seems to be the same card as the Asus.  What is somewhat
confusing is that some pictures show a single VGA output, others a DVI
and VGA.  (Mine has VGA and DVI connectors.)

Interesting.  I guess I lucked out and never put a really new card in
a really old mobo or vice versa.  

I did notice a change in PCI also.  A new sk-chip PCI Gigabit ethernet
card won't be recognized by an old PPRO motherboard that I have.
