AGP 4X on PII?


Is there any Pentium II motherboard out there that supports AGP 4X?
I've only found a AGP 2X as the max. The reason I ask this because I purchased a ATI 9600 All in Wonder video card, but before my purchase I noticed on the box that the system requirements were "Pentium II OR AGP 4X/8X.
So the card wont fit in my AGP 2x slot on my Pentium II board. ATI refuses to admit they have made a mistake in the printing on the box. Can someone let me know if it is possible for a AGP 4X to be on a Pentium II board?
thank you.
references would be greatly appreciated.
Asim.

If a 300Mhz Celeron uses the same socket as a P2 then, yes. I had an old Intel 440BX that took up to 4x agp.
