@ LIssa. I looked at Pricewatch and Ebay both, and a whole bunch of other stuff on the web. In short, nothing there I had any faith in, nor any interest in "bidding" on from someone in Hong Kong and maybe getting it in 5-7 days, or not.

You will spend more one looking for old AGP items than if you looked for current generation items. Trust me... I have a computer I built myself - every single component - and was shocked to hear every item in it was an outdated "dinosaur" only 5-years later. PCI-Express is the 'only', and cheapest way to go in this day and age. You will probably spend less money getting a new motherboard and compatible PCI-express video card than a new AGI supported motherboard and video card. I was dismayed to see almost the exact same computer as the one I built for $2,200.00 USD selling at Frys Electronics for under $350.00 in less than 5-years. Don't understatement the power of technological growth.
