:( I'm affriad both nVIDIA and ATI have retired APG. I actualy knows how it is to see this. I have an eVGA 6800GT, and my brother wanted a 6800GT, so I looked for 3 months and finnaly found an APG BFG 6800GT. It was $300.00 for a 6800GT, and a huge rip off, but he needed it cause when you upgrade to PCI-E you need to change CPU + Video Card + Mobo = GAY! He has a 478 pin thats why :-/ So the only place you will find AGP is Ebay or here on WTB/FS section. Good luck

Does it have to be ATI. If not the 7800GS is a good deal for $299

7800's don't come in AGP :( The most he can get is the 6600GT from newegg. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814130220 :(

The 7800GS is not as fast as the X850XTPE, yet it is cheaper.
It is also a sweet Overclocker, if which overcloked would put it ahead of the XTPE.
At stock settings it beats XTPE in Doom3 only, but comes behind very slightly in mostly everthing else.
