With the x1950 XT series 'supposedly' coming out in AGP during the month of march (its march 21st already), should I hold out another week on my video card before I purchase the x1950 AGP or is the price difference really not going to be significant? (Significant being greater than $25)

1. What kind of Power Supply do you have? Watts, current on 12v rail ...
2. What is your CPU?

wait about 3 years and maybe the price will drop.

in other words buy now.

I already did what you are thinking about doing and wish i hadn`t...my benchmark scores after the upgrade did not justify the money spent..the rest of my system has proven to be the "bottleneck" to any improvement. It might be wise to wait until you can upgrade from the 2.8 p4 and ddr..just my two cents...again

Honesty; get a motherboard that supports PCI-E (you should be able to find one for less than $100), keep your currentl processor unless it's garbage, and get yourself a 8800 GTS 320MB card for $300. That'll be a HUGE boost over what you currently have for comparable money.
