DX 10.1 for AGP computers

[Buddy J]

Spring forth burly protector! AMD is posed to bring a grain of hope (and DX 10.1) to those of us still using AGP graphics cards. Rumors suggest the <a href="http://www.theinquirer.net/gb/inquirer/news/2007/11/06/amd-set-capture-100-agp-market" target="_blank">Radeon HD 3850 will have an AGP variant</a>.

Now, if developers would only implement it properly...

BAHAAAHAAAAA!:bigggrin:

I just sprayed coffee all over my Dual Screens....


Only from Thrax.......... too damn funny...

[primesuspect]

oh come on. It will be years before I will be able to afford a whole platform upgrade for certain AGP computers in my house. This is very good news to people without the budget for constant computer upgrades.

Hear Hear Prime :)

Indeed!

I agree too Prime, still funny s**t from Thrax.


I started pricing out a new PC build for next summer. (Got the OK from the Boss (wife, well in 53 days she'll be my wife)) to build a new machine.

Anyway, I started pricing stuff out, and adding 15% to the prices, since next summer's hardware will be better, faster, more Uber......

... I stopped when the price of the computer I wanted to build exceeded the value of the Mustang GT I have sitting in my driveway!!! :eek:

Unless my family has a windfall of some serious $$$$$, I think it will be many more months before I embark on a new build. Dare I say I might just buy a XPS system from Dell, with an extended warranty.... (even more :eek:)
