Probably a couple more years.There are millions of AGP motherboards out
there
and they are still being made.

Hi all, nVidia, ATI and all other graphics cards, will produce AGP cards
for
how many time?


I agree - it will be at least a year before other cards such as sound
cards,
network cards, and the like are out in PCIe format in any quantity. It
will be that long before there are even any graphics cards that will
utilize the
potential bandwidth of PCIe, anyway. There'll still be AGP cards around
for
a while yet. At least a couple years.

However new high performance motherboards that support AGP are going to be
increasingly rare. Intel has dropped AGP support from their new chipsets
entirely and nvidia, via, and sis seem to be following their lead.
