I would buy an 8000 series with AGP just for it's Blu-ray/HD DVD hardware decoding capability.Posted on Dec 30, 22:41
I'm on Supermicro X5da88 dual Xeon 3GHz 3GB RAM, just updated with a Sonnet SATA PCI-X 4 port SATAII card. So far I can't see any reason to change all of this only for PCIe.Posted on Dec 12, 01:41
If there is demand, there has to be supply. Are you listening Nvidia, give us 8800GS AGP at least. One last round for AGP please!Posted on Oct 2, 23:05
This rocks At least I don't have to buy a new M/B my computer specs are still good I've been holding my 7800gs for 2 years. G92 = 8800GTS = I will buy!Posted on Oct 1, 19:52
I would buy high end (AMD 2950 or 8800 GT) AGP card too, because I have AMD X2 4600+ in a VIA based motherboard. GeCube promised AMD based AGP card in a high end category. Where is it?Posted on Oct 1, 04:23
Yup me too. I will go buy a GeForce 8000 Series and also I hope they come with 8800 series as wellPosted on Sep 12, 18:56
Why would you be happy to buy AGP cards? The PCIe counterparts are cheaper by a huge margin compared to their AGP counterparts. Also the PCIe counterparts perform better than the AGP ones.Posted on Sep 9, 06:12
This will be funny if Nvidia will be first to launch an AGP DX10 graphics card (with full support for DX10 without any "driver instability issues related to DirectX 10" and promises to fix them).Posted on Sep 8, 01:12
Many many people still have AGP compatible motherboards and the only thing they cannot update is the graphics card. I hope that they do release these DX10 cards in an AGP version.Posted on Sep 7, 17:23
I would buy a new high end AGP Nvidia 8800, the upcoming Nvidia 9800 or AMDs equivalent. I dont see why they can't continue to release AGP in parallel with PCI Express. But I am glad to see AGP is being kept alive!Posted on Sep 6, 22:17
Makes sense, there isn't much a 3GHz P4 or AMD equivalent can't do, and games don't really do multi-core yet, so the only thing AGP users need to beef up is the graphics hardware. And with stocks of X1950s running low, making more AGP cards seems smart.Posted on Sep 6, 04:58
Yes, make an AGP version to the GeForce 8000 series. I will buy it.
