How do you like it, any buyer's remorse? I'm about to order one.



I bought an 6600GT AGP and I am beggining to regret it. All the reviews I
read where of the AGP version as I was looking for an AGP card. I now
find that the PCI-e versions are cheaper as they don't require the
interface chip, or need external power (and PCI-e sales are lower than
expected?). The money I would have saved could have gone towards a new
PCI-e motherboard!


Look at it this way. The AGP is on its way out and you got yourself one
of the finest AGP cards that runs extremely well for its price. And when
you finally get yourself one of those luxury PCI-e mobos, you can save
that card for your old PC.

I could look at at that way, but why should anyone else who isn't aware of
lower PCI-E price make a similer mistake?
