*POLL* Will your next GPU purchase be AGP or PCIe?

[Lonyo]

Ther's a debate as to whether releasing next gen cards as AGP parts as well as PCIe is worth it, apparently those with AGP will be a very small part of the market who would want to buy a high end card.
So, if you are probably going to buy a next gen high end card (ATi or nVidia), is it likely to be AGP or PCIe?

This does not include mainstream cards, or current gen, as the details were only that the next gen nVidia parts for the high end would be PCIe only (the 7800 cards).

I have an AGP 6800 GT.

I'm hoping to keep that for a little while still, & then, likely when i go dual-core, i'll probably look for a PCI-e mobo & card.

PCI-E, my 9800 pro will happily last me until i upgrade the rest of my rig (probably in early feb 2006, when dual core and r520, G70 are mature and sensibly priced) and i'd be insane not to get a PCI-E mobo then...although if i could get one of those ULi ones that do AGP and PCI-E that would be perfect

 

[JBird7986]

I have no intention of upgrading my motherboard again until 939 is long dead. Therefore, I'm going to buy an AGP version of my next card to fit in my current slot. If the R520 still has any life in it after I upgrade to my next rig (PCIe) then I will find myself an ATOP style card and plug it in.

I will only buy PCIE from now on.

When I replace the A64 3000/6800NU AGP in my five year olds box, AGP is gone for me.

 

[BillyBobJoel71]

when my p4 3.00e and agp 6800gt are gone, i will always go pci-e. i'm still waiting for the performance to go well beyond agp, because now its the same.

 

[paadness]

If i manage to fool my friend to buy my "spectacular S-754 Rog" i defintely go for PCI-E

 

[RussianSensation]

P4 3.2ghz + radeon 8500....I'll probably upgrade to an AGP card before I change my system.

 

[BobDaMenkey]

I'll upgrade to PCIe when I buy a new processor in 6 months to a yearish. I'm starting to feel the need to upgrade, my old Barton is feeling it's age.

 

[Killrose]

I would definately plan on PCI-e, but considering the fact that I have an OEM install of WinXP and will probably be forced to buy a retail copy by MS because of their new validation policy, and AMD has not released socket M processors or road map, and Ati has not released their Crossfire chipset, ect., I am probably going to hang on to my nForce2/6800U/2.4gig Barton Mobile set-up for awhile longer

I'm also interested in the Aegia Physics processor thingy and hopefull that maybe that might actually be my next up-grade.

 

[BFG10K]

PCIe.

 

[Philippine Mango]

My CPU/FSBis too fast to have the need to switch to a PCIe system (2.8@3.5GHZ) so I will likely upgrade to another AGP card and agian (unless of course the CPU some how becomes the bottle neck, which will be a while).

 

[eplebnista]

PCI Express version

 

[kurt454]

Next purchase will definitely be pci-e.

 

[Bateluer]

Definitely PCIe. Don't think you are going to have much of a choice if you buy a high end motherboard for your next upgrade.

 

[Geomagick]

Having already got PCIe then the choice is a bit obvious for me.

Might skip a generation though as my GF6800GT is mighty impressive.
