Thinking of buying a Sapphire Technology RAdeon X1600 Pro AGP 512MB

My motherboard is MS6714 it has an AGP slot, no PCI-Express.

Will this GFX card run with this motherboard? Is it compatible?

I hear that there is alternate power required to purchase this card?
Does the adapter come bundled with the card itself, or must I purchase
separately?

Any help appreciated.

here is the link to the card I am considering

Check the motherboard first, and confirm what slot it has.
You may be looking for a PCI card instead.

Im certain it has an AGP slot, as my current card is AGP and the manual
also states it has one AGP slot

Can you answer the question about the card's power supply?

Will it still be compatible with my system?

Online pictures suggest it has the small external connector
as on a floppy drive. Any retail packaged card should come
with the appropriate adapter with a socket you plug one of
your PSU 4-pin plugs into... ideally this PSU lead has only
the video card connected, though it's possible to have more
it.

So yes the regular retail packaged product should have
everything you need, except that it would be better to get
the newer driver from ATI's 'site instead of using the one
on the CD.
