ignore Rip The Jacker.

there are 2 cards that are currently the best AGP cards u can get, the only difference is what card you'd rather have.

Ati Radeon X800 XT 256MB
or
Nvidia Geforce 6800 Ultra 256MB

personally i'd get the Radeon X800. but both of those cards are the best AGP cards u can get.

I read somewhere else , that that Quaddro Card sucks for gaming....

Yeah the 9800XT and the Nvidia 6800GT Ultra are the best agp video cards, when it comes to PC Gaming...

[Snee]

I'd go for the Geforce 6800GT 256. Last gen cards I would have said radeon(which would have been the 9800xt 256) but between these (6800GT or x800xt) I'd rather have the geforce.

I hear great things about the chip.

EDit: scratch gt, it should say UE.

The R is getting better game benchmarks right now bu fails to have Pixal Shader 3.0. The Geforce has Pixal Shader 3.0 so in about 3-4 years when game makers start using Pixal Shader 3.0 the R card will not be able to run them.

R = Radeon

And i mean all of the PCI Radeon cards when i say R as they are all based around the sme chipset.

I don't get it, you asked for "the absolute best agp card out there," and I posted the Quadro FX 3000, because it seems like one of "the absolute best" out there.

Whats wrong? :huh:

Its not the absolute best, its a graphics design card. You wouldn't be able to game on it properly.

X800 or 6800 series are the best available.

Whats wrong? :huh: Oh well I meant the best gaming card, I figured u were joking around or something. :blushing:

[silent h3ro]

Ok one more question: will they make any more better AGP cards?

[Peerzy]

No. The current cards are pushing AGP right to the limit thats why PCI Express was made, its so much faster basically.
