Well PCI-e is the way forward. I'm sure nvidia have their own reasons for this, maybe to secure a large market share before ATI go in with both AGP and PCI. maybe they are just focusing on having the best PCI-e card instead of working 2 routes? Idk but it could be really smart or really dumb depending on you you look at it.

It helps force people into buying PCI-e instead of letting them use old soon to be out of date hardware. They should both stop making AGP immediately and simply force anyone who needs to upgrade into that, would be a more effective way to phase out AGP... right now everyone who I talks to is hesitant to buy PCI-e (because they are retarded.) this would remove that hesitation

Yeah stop making everything AGP and everything PCI-e only so now next time I upgrade my videocard I gotta upgrade my new motherboard too. I had to buy an AGP motherboard cause of my video card. I wasn't gonna shell out another couple hundred for a new video card. And wtf is so special about PCI-e? What makes it so great?

they wont do a agp version... simply because they want everyone to buy nf4 with pci express motherboards as then they get more money for the chipsets. maybe if sales drop off lots then they might to bring some money in

think u r right, but if ati bring agp versions from their new chip, nvidia wont get money they will lose a lot of money and they will lose some of their fans and customers...........

from the official page:

Q: Will you use HSI to make AGP-based GeForce 7800 boards?
We are not disclosing plans for AGP at this time, but that is certainly possible with the flexibility of our HSI chip.

PCI Express runs faster than AGP, so reading the memory of a gfx card will be faster etc..

btw, whoever asked why pci-e... it's faster. doesn't make much of a difference now, but you'll be able to get the faster cards when they come out...

personally i don't care as i don't have the money for anything in the near future

You can't have a dual AGP Graphics Card.

I have similar history to above

TNT
GF2 MX
GF3 Ti200
GF4 Ti4200
GF6 6600GT

And my next card will likely be a 7600 etc

PCI-Express is not any faster than agp, its just the fact that you can have 7 PCI-Express Lanes all being used and there is no slowdown, where as agp once the bus is maxed out, everything slows down, I could extend this by a couple pages and be more accurate but I don't want to.

First of all its PCI-E not PCI-X or pcx or whatever the hell you come up with.

Second SLI is not crap, if it was ATI wouldn't copy nVidia with Crossfire,
http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=19403

and most importantly nVidia are not worse than ATI else ATI wouldn't copy them on EVERYTHING:

http://www.gdhardware.com/ed/ati_open/001.htm



NVIDIA --- ATI
The Way It's Meant To Be Played --- Get in the Game
Dawn --- Ruby
MXM --- Axiom
SLI --- Multi-Rendering
TurboCache --- HyperMemory
First with Dual-Slot Design --- X850 XT PE
