    how is it a waste to spend 20$ more and to have a real upgrade route for the future? especially if it was a stoe boguth computer with a ---- motherboard to begin with


    EDIT: you have a 478/9 proc?

    if you did it shoudl give you the lesson of never going with a monopolistic profit driven monopoly

    ok
    well you should get a PCI-e card

    fin


    it's not that muc more expensive after you consider the fact that AGP costs 40% more, AND that you can sell your old motherboard on ebay or something.

    oh, i forgot he didnt have pci e. omg dude upgrade. dont even think about upgrading your video card to an AGP. PCI e is the present and future. it'll be stupid for you to sepnd money on AGP.
