Ya, I think DiRT also requires SM3.0. Good thing you brought that up Maroon.

there is always the x1950pro.. i would say that is the best agp card available

nope... thats the Gecube x1950xt

possible if you go with an Am2 build and re-use everything, then when you get some more cash you can easily upgrade to AM2+

they have that in agp.. had no idea

 

[veg1992]

here it is

Newegg.com - GECUBE HX195XTGA3-D3 (R) Radeon X1950XT 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 AGP 8X HDCP Ready Video Card - Retail

agp god man I recommend you save as much money as possible for a whole new system just because agp is nearly obsolete so its actually more expensive to buy the same card as an old technology then there pci-express counterparts.

Dude I am still stuck with a PCI card LOL!!!!!!!

I am waiting one more week for my 8800GTX's

Their is a 7900 AGP version

The X1950XT is the best AGP card available.

If you can, look and see if you cant find an old 7800GS in AGP from someone. If not the 7600GT is not much faster than your old card...

but i wonder if i can run a 7800gs on here.... i'll probably buy a new PSU anyways... this codegen sucks anyways

Which would be better from these two?

Newegg.com - XFX PVT73AUDE3 GeForce 7600GT 256MB 128-bit GDDR3 AGP 4X/8X Video Card - Retail

Newegg.com - SAPPHIRE 100209L Radeon X1950GT 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 AGP 8X HDCP Ready Video Card - Retail


And can anyone tell me the dimensions on them? I'm not sure if my case is big enough.
