Hello,

What are the fastest NVIDIA GeForce card models for AGP slots? Is it 6800 GS?

Thank you in advance.

No. The fastest nvidia AGP card, and in fact the fastest AGP
card ever made is Gainward's 7800GS+. The plus part means
it has a G71/7900GT core with 24 pipes.

Gainward Bliss 7800GS+ 512MB is an AGP card that uses the 7900
GPU, and has the full 24 pixel pipeline. I think they are only sold in
Europe, but that may have changed.


OK, how about in U.S. then? I haven't seen a 7800GS+ in U.S. Newegg doesn't show it. It only
showed the non-Plus one.

A few EU retailers are shipping these cards to the U.S.
E.g. OcUK:

As EDM already told you, this site ships to USA;

http://www.gainward.net/products/pro...products_id=48

It'll set you back around $440.44 or so depending on the exchange rates
at time of purchase.

technically the 7800gs is faster but it would be cheaper and probably
faster to get a new pci-e motherboard and a standard 7900gt.

also the older 6800gt is also faster then the 6800gs since it has 16
pipelines vs the gs's 12
