  Worth it to upgrade my AGP card?  Discussion in 'Audio and

system....Pentium 4 2.8 Ghz chip, ASROCK PV488 motherboard, 1 GB
RAM, and an Nvidia 7600 GS card. I don't have the scratch to
build a new system yet, although I've gotten some great ideas
from people on this board on my next b uild (thanks, Techspot
community).      Anyway, I'm wondering if it's worthwhile to
upgrade my AGP card to eek out another year or so of use. What
are the thoughts of other techies out there? The big questions I
have is...will it make a difference, and does the motherboard
limit the 'strength' of the AGP card that you can use? My card
right now is only 256 MB and 128 bit. I read about this AGP card
supposed to be the top of the line for AGP, 512 MB, 256-bit,
DDR2, etc etc.      Thoughts, comments, jeers?   2. kimsland Ex-
