PCI,
AGP, and AGP Pro cards and expansion slots have different
voltages that affect mechanical compatibility with one
another. However PCI cards that are universally keyed
are compatible in both 5V and 3.3V slots. AGP and AGP
Pro universal cards can plug into any 1.5V and 3.3V
AGP and AGP Pro slots.
32-bit PCI Slots and Cards come in
3.3V and 5V options. Below is an illustration of what
32-bit PCI 5V and 3.3V and slots looks like.
