Compatibility & service notes
Reference specifications are for 128 MB R350 AGP model; OEM and later boards labeled 128 MB may use 128-bit bus.
Inspect auxiliary-power socket, cooler fan, and capacitors. Match BIOS and drivers to board maker and memory configuration; some legacy hosts have chipset-specific stability issues.
- Check slot signaling, keying, lane width, auxiliary power, clearance, and PSU requirements; physical insertion alone does not prove compatibility.
- Use drivers supporting this device ID and OS release. Preserve original driver/firmware before updates and record source.
- Do not energize cards with cracks, corrosion, damaged power sockets, obstructed fans, or suspected shorts; inspect before bench testing.
