powercolor will be coming out with the x1950pro AGP.

Your processor might be a slight bottleneck, but as long as you are playing at 1280x1024 or higher, it will be fine.

Nope nvidia's last agp card is most likely the 7800gs.

I doubt they will come out with another agp card.

the only counterattack is the 2000 GPUs made by Gainward for the 7800gs 512mb with 20pipes.

Unfortunately, the sun is setting on AGP. I doubt that there will be any more fantastic GPUs on an AGP card.

I still think there will be a mid range dx10 card for AGP, its too big of an upgrade market for vendors to ignore.

There comes a time when you need to upgrade your components...the idea of a DX10 card with an AGP system is a sure sign of one of these times :|

Well, to be fair, it's not nVidia's choice whether or not to come out with a higher-end AGP card. I'm sure it wasn't their idea to come out with the Geforce 6200 PCI, but those of us who were stuck with just a PCI slot when it came out were sure happy it did. As long as a good number of people still have AGP slots, I think we'll see the occasional AGP card come rolling out from manufacturers (such as 3dfuzion [part of BFG]) that made the 6200 PCI.

Yeah, recently after my post back in Nov, I looked at the Steam Hardware Survery and changed my tune to: If there is money in the niche, they will put something there.

Though to be honest, there was talk at the time of the x1950pro being the last of it's kind.
