Default 7800GS graphics card... worth it?
schrieb:
I have the misfortune of being stuck with an AGP motherboard. I'm
don't feel the need to ditch my Athlon 64 3000+ just yet, but at the
same time I don't feel comfortable investing money into a dead
technology like AGP.

Most of the fancy new cards are PCI-Express only, and I can't really
use 'em unless I overhaul my entire system. So at this point... is the
7800GS worth my $300? Or would I be stupid to spend any money on a
dead technology?

Speaking of "dead" technology:
I have yet to run into that kind of problems - I just upgraded my
videocard from a Geforce 2 Ti to a Geforce 3 Ti 200 ;-)

Perhaps next year IŽll upgrade my AMD Duron 1600 to an Athlon :-)
