    i dont understand. Sure i think AGP is better but alot of people i know absolutely hate PCI. I kinda like it cause they are universal.

    Maybe because PCI can never be as powerful as AGP. Besides, PCI-Express is out and now that owns AGP.

    here is why PCI has only 2 pipelines and thats all it will ever have
    AGP 4x is 2 times as fast as PCI and AGP 8x is 4 times as fast as PCI also PCI-X (PCI express) is 16X which is 2 times as fast as AGP 8x and 8 times as fast as PCI
