6600gt PCIE or 6600gt AGP

[chrisrod01]

Okay here the deal my 6800 AGP is burnt cause of overclocking and it sucks but I can get a pny 6600gt in bestbuy for 115$. Is there any big difference of both 6600 gt for agp and pcie. If some one know where i can find a review agp vs pcie?

Get the one that will fit in your current mainboard.

Main difference:



Will fit in your mobo/will NOT fit in your mobo

Yes people i know it doesnt fit but im asking is there going to be any huge difference on agp to pcie .I know it doesnt fit the reason i ask is cause I was think upgrading to new mobo , processor , and GC. So any huge diference in performance wise???

no

The AGP one will run hotter(due to the bridge chip), and probably have slower memory by 100mhz, though you may be able to overclock it back up.

PCI-E is better, but whatever you decide to buy, don't get xfx or pny! hey that rhymes!

Look at the stats on the box or internet they will tell you everything you want to know. In terms of pixles per second, memory clock, core clock, max resolution, that sort of thing.
