What is hottest agp video card for price and performance want to keep agp motherboard?

Screw ATI, they suck!



The eVGA GeForce 7800 GS AGP 8x is the last good card for the AGP MoBos.



I got mine a while back for over $350, when it was announced to be the "last" AGP card made. The last good one that is.

Now it runs for around 100 something dollars.



Very good card. Don't get tricked into ATI, I hate ATI and have never had a good card from them. Their benchmarks suck.|||ATi Radeon X1950Pro for AGP should be really good :) But it's kinda expensive though, but it has a good price/performance ratio. But if you don't want to break the bank try searching for a nVidia Geforce 7600 series card, that should give you enough pixel pushing power :)|||Something like this. You have to have an AGP X8 slot because it will not work with an AGP 4X slot. You also need at least a 450watt PSU with a minimum of 30amps on the +12V rails.

512MB of DDR3 running thru a 256bit memory bus.

If you run Vista or plan on upgrading to it I suggest this card:

It only needs a 300watt power supply and runs DirectX 10 while the 1950 only runs DX9. AGP DX10 cards are new and have just started coming out!

I play DX10 games in DirectX 10 and they look so so sweet!|||If you want DirectX 10 graphics with Vista or the ability to play Blu-Ray, HD-DVD, and other HDCP-protected media, you can't go wrong with an nVidia 8600 series card. If you're still running Windows XP and don't care about High Def materials, then you'll probably want a nVidia 7800/7900 or ATI x1900/x1950 series card instead, as both cards push an insane amount of pixels.



Either way you go, you may also want to consider upgrading your power supply to at least 400 watts output, if not more (the high-end versions of the nVidia and ATI cards mentioned pretty much require a 450 or 500 watt power supply).|||Uh... First of all, what are you doing? Gaming, hard core gaming, video editting, graphics, CAD?



Second, do you have AGP, AGP pro, PCI express?
