Will We See r520 in AGP?

Nice to see, It looks like I'm going to build a Socket 754 setup for my friend then as there will be one more upgrade for the Video card comming soon.
 
That'd rock so hard if there's actually a X1800XT. 2 of 3 gaming rigs in my house are still AGP, and I'd love to get my father a new AGP card for christmas or something- bought him a X800Pro about 5 months ago, though.

As for the AGP > PCI-E move... although it may not be absolutely be necessary, what is in life? Fact is, technology- especially technology- is always pushing forward. There's no time to stop and cater those left behind, that'd be going backwards, right? I mean, I'd love it if AGP continues (most PCs that I frequent are still AGP) but it's just not progressive.

Those of you pushing against progress will find that you're going nowhere, fast. Join the anticonformity movement! Eff PCI-Express...

...but I like my dual 7800GTs. 😀

We're not pushing against progess, just unneccessary upgrades 🙂

Unneccessary upgrades = waste of $

When games put too much of a load on a CPU and it causes a REAL bottleneck, then it's time for a CPU upgrade (prolly with mobo too). IMHO, we're not there yet.

EDIT: Crap, forgot to say "nice find Apoppin" which is what I came here to do in the first place 🙂
