SMARTEST THINGS RIGHT NOW IS TO WAIT FOR DX10.
ignore this person, if your looking for an AGP card, i dont find it likely that you should depend on cards that dont exist yet. and likely wont. (something about AGP being phased out........)
Ignore this person, hes an idiot.
Wait for DX10 and buy a whole new PC, or buy the X1950 Pro now and buy a new PC in a year.
Lets' be honest with people. Waiting for DX10 means upgrading to VISTA. If your system is a couple of years old, then you might not have the resources that VISTA will require for acceptable performance.
That is the dumbest post ive ever seen..
Waiting for DX10 means waiting for NEW HARDWARE, so how can u say that "waiting for NEW hardware means waiting for Vista, but Vista wont run on OLD hardware"? ITS THE HARDWARE THAT UR WAITING FOR! I dont even know how to respond to that post..
Yep, kaotao......some people are not worth saving.
Track, you really are a walking medical miracle. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
DX10 will only be available with Vista. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
XP will not get a DX10 patch.
That means wonderlick, if you have a DX10 compatible card running on XP, you cannot enable any DX10 features that a software program might contain because XP cannot perform DX10 instructions. DUH!
It's all about the relationship between hardware, operating systems and software.
Years ago Microsoft claimed that Windows would run on a 286 system. (heh heh) more like walked........A user can most likely load Vista onto an old pentium class computer, but don't count on it "running."
