Best Answer

AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) is a computer bus designed for video cards. It is faster than PCI, but has been supplanted by PCI-E.

AGP, or Advanced Graphics Port allows the use of a high speed graphics card which can considerably improve performance of the computer video. The AGP slot only provides the possibility of improved graphics, next you need to get a high quality AGP CARD.
