FREE BFG T-Shirt, Teflon stick pads and stickers
I’m sure your gonna ooze sex appeal with that T-shirt max, careful what you do with the sticky pads though 😉

I keep getting outbid 🙁 Well, if nothing else, I’ve ramped up what you’ll get from the sale 🙂
It’s over £100 now. If the guy backs out, let me know and I’ll take it for that.
Well, I lost, but it may have been a lucky escape.
Just done some background research, and to get this into my Shuttle I would need a new PSU (£75-£100 for a SilentX model that fits in the small case) , and I may need to resinstall XP to get around an incompatibility with the AGP Gart driver limiting me to 16 bits per pixel rather than 32 that I need.
Maybe I’ll just carry on as I am at the moment, and do a whole system upgrade in a few months 🙁

For those of you still interested in AGP, Toms Hardware has just done an article about updating your old system with a new card:

this is what i have now http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-137-SP
nice card
whats the power set up like nom ?? does it use the 4 or 6 pin molex connecotrs ? If it uses the 6 pin does it come with a convertor ?? I’m not sure of the spec of my power supply (think its 450w but will have to remove it to check) but i don’t think it has 6 pin molex on it, i’m currently using a 6800GT so hopefully the power requirement will be similar.
Sure looks tempting for £150 or £190 for the turbo (factory overclocked) HIS version.

Cheers Neon that was really handy. I think I’m going to go with the 1950 end of next month. I’m lucky at the moment because my psu is already 500 so that’s all good as well!

4 pin……im using a 380w psu…..tis fine
Do we know yet of a DX10 AGP card?
That’s what I really need (having just drooled over my keyboard watching Crysis demo).
I think otherwise I might just suffer in not so much silence with my current one. Seems a bit silly really buying a non-DX10 card now hmmm?
Me too space, had a chat with McQueen, going to wait for DX10 card in March, which should be same price as 8800. No point buying 800 now.
tbh your probably better off waiting 6 months for dx10 cards (ati), from what i’ve heard driver support is a bit wank, let others do the testing for you 😀 and see what sorta games are gonna come out.
only got my dx9 1950 ati cause it only cost £49 after selling my 6800gt on e bay 😀
