Does anyone know if Nvidia's 6600 cards will be available in AGP format or
are they all going to be PCI Express?

they will be released at first in PCI express then released on AGP a few
months or so later

I for one couldn't wait... so I found me a 5900XT for $99 on eBay.

I hope they do soon. I really want to see what that card can do.

That's not bad, does it actually work?

Seller says so; I haven't received the board yet. Should arrive Monday
according to UPS.

I was only joking. I hope I didn't jinx it for you.

Sad - 6600GT will be twice as fast, and very cheap.

apparently the 6600 not sure which one is capable of about 6800 3dmark2003
marks. Thats not bad considering i got a 5900XT and i get about 5500. So
it'll be slight improvement on the 5900xt i cant compare with any other
cards as i dont have any

I'm pondering waiting until the 6600 series is released and then
getting a 5900 when the prices of those plummet.

get the 6600. for the sheer reason of having a bang upto date card that will
be guarenteed for quite a while. The 5900 series is a good purchase card.
i got the XT version and it causes me no problems and runs very well in my
rig

If by "cheap" you mean "costing at least twice as much". And the 5900XT
has the advantage of actually existing right now. I don't think we'll
see any AGP 6600GTs until Christmas.

The 6600s take a hit on memory bandwidth though, they don't even have a 256
bit memory interface.

I couldnt wait either and got a 5900, the original version
(400mhz/850mhz) for $127 on ebay. And that included the shipping. Its worked
great so far. Ive had it a couple of months already. And Ive been able to
OC it to 5950ultra speeds with no problem.
