Motherboard Aperture size?

[Cyber$nake]

Hello all!
One thing (of many) I noticed while running SiSfot Sandra was that my motherboard AGP 4x slot had a 128mb aperture size. Does this mean that a 256mb gfx card will not function with it? I found a very nice deal for a 9800xt but not a deal at all if it doesnt even work with my computer ;-) Thanks in ahead!

Edit: If this alos helps, it says that the slot is version 2.00, its command queue lenth is 32, has fast-write support, side band support, and supporst AGP 1x 2x and 4x.

Leave it alone. It is not a performance setting.
It just sets how much memory can be used outside of the gfx memory if needed.
In the past 8MB cards may have needed more so apeture sizes were set so they could use system memory when they ran out. Today 64MB, 128MB and 256MB gfx card memory is a lot. By the way, don't turn off AGP apeture either. Just leave it alone.
