461357	2006-06-07 07:56:00	For ATI card PS2 is X series ie:x800..... The X series is all PCI-E isn't it? Do Nvidia have any pixel shader 2 AGP cards?	Greven (91)
461358	2006-06-07 21:21:00	The X series is all PCI-E isn't it? Do Nvidia have any pixel shader 2 AGP cards?No that's not true... the 1st gen X series cards are available in AGP as well (the higher end ones can be hard to find though) such as the X850XT or X800XT and models below these aren't too hard to find. aidanmaz I assume you have an AGP based mobo. What are the rest of your system specs... maybe upgrading the 9250 isn't going to be your best option. Are you just wanting to have your PC Vista capable or do you play games? Two possible ATi solutions are... 1) RADEON X1600PRO, 256MB DDR 2, AGP 8X Edition (www.gecube.com) 2) RADEON X1600PRO, 512MB DDR 2, AGP 8X, AVIVO Edition (www.gecube.com) Cheers chiefnz	chiefnz (545)
