I have been looking at this card as an AGP tie me over from my 9600Pro till I can build an AM2 or an X2 setup, mostly because of its ability to unlock the PP and OC so its like an X850XT PE.
I have noticed a couple of things though, that have got in the way of my purchase. Sapphire makes the GTO and the GTO2, and the GTO2 is the only one that has been able to be unlocked and OC'ed. And I have not been able to find a GTO2 that is AGP.
Maybe I have overlooked something, but does the GTO2 only come in PCIe? If so, what would another option be for an upgrade, something ~$200. I was thinking about an x800xl or xt. What do y'all think?
