a good effort i guess…but still think that rather than buying this people wld rather upgrade to pcie mobo and newer processors
wow gr8 news for me.
great news for me too … looking to upgrade my 6600gt
Don’t be so sure this won’t sell. My desktop still has an athlon 64 3200+ clawhammer that does just fine… the gfx card is too weak to play most of the newer games at any high setting though. If I were a gamer, I might upgrade the gfx card. And no, I wouldn’t upgrade everything else. Just because someone wants to play games doesn’t mean he is willing to sell his kids to finance it.
There are a lot of people who will buy Dx10 AGP cards. They clearly must have enough AGP NVidia GF 7x series customers to go for this… it isn’t like they are going to score any brownie points from enthusiasts for this announcement.
^^^ true…but i was talkin abt the segment of ppl with agp slots on their mobos
thatd be athnlon xp and P4 ppl…75% and 25% ppl with a64 etc
now wat i figure is that ppl with axp and p4 dont have powerful enuf rigs to support them for dx10 gen cards…and next gen games (correct me if i m wrong) and itd be better for them to get a new rig first…just my .02$
^^ Yes, and my mobo only has an AGP slot.
For those who have forgotten, socket 754 and socket 940 only had AGP.
PCI-Express was an unnecessary thing foisted upon the world.
It made sense only if they had implemented it better in the form of all expansion slots being PCI-Ex. As things stand now, you have some PCI-Ex and some of them are more equal than others…
