You're right. I saw a GForce7800 (AGP) on TigerDirect a couple of months ago, very cheap. Unfortunately, they aren't carrying them right now. Still, I've seen them there periodically so these cards are bound to show up there sooner or later. They are getting harder to come by though. They do have a number of ATI cards that are AGP compatible but, I'm not too familiar with ATI.

yeah, it's a 7900gs is the fastest agp card. I've thought it about on a few occasions, just didn't think it would get me that much of a boost. I figured my cpu is my limit since most games require dual core cpus now, so didn't seem worth it. Altho now, if it gets me over the hump to play tmo, maybe it's worth trying.

As for now, i'm retrying RFB with RSRD as that works fine.
