An hd3850 agp will max out cod4 and run many new games very well.

There are mobo's that support agp and dual core...just very few.
 
4870 might be overkill for most games, but crysis not so much, my friend only gets under 30 fps on crysis v high no AA in the final stages of the game. of course Crysis v high is not a good example at all, but if you wanna max out warhead and vanilla crysis, which he plays alot, it could be worth it. so imo its best off the go with a 4830 or 4850, but the option is always there.

btw my friend has 19" wide and 4870/q6600@3.2GHz
 
The 4870 isnt overkill imo, because it may be more than enough to play games now, but it will be just right in 6 months time. Its always better to buy a little more than you need right now, so it will last you a bit longer.
