    agp isnt dying. no card even uses the full bandwidth of agp. no where near it. AGP 16 is around the corner so no its not dead.

    he does not lie there. still they are aceptable, I have PCI-e on my 754, it's not the best board, but it definately works... I just wanted tog et a card that could migrate to my next system as opposed to having to replace the card alltogether. <3 7800GT

    How is AGP dying if Nvidia and ATI still produce AGP cards and with the new 7800GS out i doubt AGP will die anytime soon. As for the system, you might want to get a highly overclock to prevent bottlenecking and for anyone who said you needed a 450w PSU to run good doesnt know what they are talking about, just get a good +12v PSU and you will be fine.
    May i suggest the antec TPII 430w

    AGP doesn't support multiple GFX cards though... PCI- definately has the advantage there.

    wow nub, you void your warranty on DFI mobos if you use any psu thats not 480W or higher.

    The ULi M1695 motherboard chip supports 2 agps chips running together like SLI. Its featured in the ASrock 939dual-sata 2 but the feature itself isnt used as it only has 1 agp slot.
