Which of the following expansion slots would support the HIGHEST transfer speeds for high-end graphics cards? (Select TWO).
The correct answer is A. PCIe B. AGP 8x. Among the listed options, PCIe (PCI Express) and AGP 8x support the highest transfer speeds for graphics cards. PCIe x16 is the modern standard, offering speeds exceeding 15 GB/s (PCIe 3.0) and far higher in later versions, making it the dominant interface for high-end GPUs…

Explanation
Among the listed options, PCIe (PCI Express) and AGP 8x support the highest transfer speeds for graphics cards. PCIe x16 is the modern standard, offering speeds exceeding 15 GB/s (PCIe 3.0) and far higher in later versions, making it the dominant interface for high-end GPUs today. AGP 8x (Accelerated Graphics Port) was the previous dedicated graphics standard, offering up to 2.1 GB/s - far less than PCIe but still much faster than PCI or ISA. Standard PCI is limited to approximately 133 MB/s. ISA (Industry Standard Architecture) is a very old, extremely slow legacy bus. Between the options, PCIe and AGP 8x are the two highest-performing choices.
