Gigabyte k8nsc and 7600GT AGP

I just bought a 7600GT AGP card to go in my Gigabyte K8nsc motherboard . The card says it is an agp 3.0 .8v card. After I bought the card (it has not shipped yet, but newegg has debited my card) I went to look over my motherboard specs It is 3.0 compliant but it says in parentheses (1.5v). Does that mean the vid card will not work?

Based on what I just read (thanks for the links) a card may report .8v but it still uses the 1.5v supply. As I read it, it really is still a 1.5v vid card
