no Cpuz will give you the name/model of your motherboard, which you can google for to find out if its 4x/8x we cant tell if its either of those speeds from a picture,

Re: can someone tell what type of port this is?

thats a HP or a Compaq machine with an MSI motherboard in it, uses an intel 845 chipset and the agp port is rated at 4x. Any 1.5v agp card will work as agp is backward compatible, meaning an 8x card will simply just train down to 4x.
