Default AGP card advice please

Intel owners have a harder time upgrading because PCIe is tied-in with the
new LGA775 CPU socket and DDR2 RAM. Socket 478 motherboards with PCIe are
quite rare.

I came in late on this one but I would have to say that you should
seriously consider saving your money by not buying an AGP card, PCI
Express is coming and it sounds like Oblivion is the kind of game that
will force a change to the new standard. Also consider that bigger &
wider LCD displays are getting cheaper daily, so any money spent on AGP
hardware might buy hardware that has a short lifetime...
