The games I play (Warhammer 40K and NWN series) dont need the power of a say 7900GT.
Oh yeah and I'm to cheap

Why did you buy a 7900GS+ then?Originally Posted by chrisinthesun20
Really looking forward to your thoughts on this one and how they compare to the 7900gt's
Those who remain AGP are usually ones with relatively new pc, 3400+ A64 or P4 LGA755. We don't feel like upgrading whole machine just for PCI-E because our pc is relatively new. When 754, 939, LGA755 was first released there wasnt PCI-E yet, too bad for us who bought the new cpu when its first out, if we waited a few month there would be PCI-E [no] I think nvidia will still have great market if they release 7900GS AGP, ATi should also make X1900 AGP, they can be limited amount, but there is market for itit's always the same whine when some old bus/socket/whatever gets dropped off. Computers evolve, learn to live with it or stop upgrading, there's nothing else you can do
buying AGP card = buying a PCI-E card and CHEAP mobo, but don't forget, getting a new 24 pin mobo also means i have to get a new PSU, that adds additional cost as good PSU cost hundreds!
there are many of us who arn't hardcore PC enthusiast who upgrade every 3 month

Those with A64 and P4 LGA775 can buy new mobo + pcie version of the same high end card for cheaper than the agp card is, and keep rest of their rigs, i don't see your pointThose who wine about AGP are usually ones with relatively new pc, 3400+ A64 or P4 LGA755.

the PCI-E mobo would be CHEAP quality if I want to fit in the budget, I have a quality 200dollar mobo, why would I bother with the CHEAP 50dollar mobo that only has PCI-E on it?Those with A64 and P4 LGA775 can buy new mobo + pcie version of the same high end card for cheaper than the agp card is, and keep rest of their rigs, i don't see your point
Don't forget a new 24pin PSU

whos whining? just answered the guys questionit's always the same whine when some old bus/socket/whatever gets dropped off. Computers evolve, learn to live with it or stop upgrading, there's nothing else you can do
I didn't mean this thread in particular, just generally.
what? i generally whine
or people generally whine about pci...exp......ok penny droped you mean generally people whine about it
i see, ye your right and they whine cause it sucks,
its a sad day when the enthusiastic gamer realises what an elite sport pc gaming is and that it requires vast amounts of liquid cash every year just to keep playing at the rez you are accostomed to
and that makes them bitter,
Because a £40 ECS A939 will do above 300HTT.the PCI-E mobo would be CHEAP quality if I want to fit in the budget, I have a quality 200dollar mobo, why would I bother with the CHEAP 50dollar mobo that only has PCI-E on it?

You dont need a 24pin psu either. 20pin would be fine.
