Question about up-to-date AGP video cards.

You should get a ATI 9550 pretty cheap.  That should work for you Howard.  I'd send you one but all mine are PCIe.

LOL nope..... pretty sure the 9x series is what's in there now.  It only supports as high as shader model 2.0, all the latest emus need 3.0.

last card i saw that was agp was a nvidia geforce 8400. On the same token, you can probably find yourself a second hand motherboard that supports your cpu and hard drive that has a pci-e slot for next to nothing these days. New AGP cards tend to be sold at a premium these days. By the time you get one, you would almost incur the same costs as a compatible pci-e motherboard.

Edit: This one is now out of stock but there are other comparable cards in the $50 range. Just try one.

Noot any-more. I'm seeing 2.8ghz HT mobo PCs on CL for under a hundred dollars (although, I think they're still too much). I'd upgrade. Do as Arby says: donate your old one to the proles. No, seriously, sell yours and upgrade.
