    Yeah, but a mid-ranged GFX card won't let me play some of the games I erm... want. and I'm just a poor student, I won't be able to upgrade to 64bit yet. (waiting for 64 bit OSes to get 'settled' in)

    Save some more money.

    Get a 2nd hand X800PRO and Arctic cooler.

    Clock it to XT and higher speeds.

    Thrash a 6800GT into a pile of poo

    AGP will go or if not it will certainly get updated. PCI-Express seems like the way to go for the future. Things are changing so fast with PC's that something more radical may be implemented in the not too distant future!!
