If it is AGP I'm pretty sure it will look different from the other PCI slots. Oh and I'm also fairly certain there were GeForce 4 AGP cards.

If your computer has AGP slot it may look like this:

Colours may vary from brown to white to black.

Edit: AGP slots are always set off more away from the motherboard than normal PCI and PCI Express slots.

So. That Everest program...says that I have 4 slots for ram (4 DIMM)...meaning I can just get 2 more sticks of 512? Sorry. Being pesky. I just want to know for sure that I'm doing the right thing.
