ComputerBase has some pics of the new Sapphires <A HREF="http://www.computerbase.de/bild/news/10254/1/" target="_new">X850XT</A> (native AGP R481) and the <A HREF="http://www.computerbase.de/bild/news/10254/4/" target="_new">X800XL</A> using the Rialto bridge.
<A HREF="http://www.computerbase.de/news/hardware/grafikkarten/ati/2005/maerz/sapphire_x850_x800_xl_agp/" target="_new">http://www.computerbase.de/news/hardware/grafikkarten/ati/2005/maerz/sapphire_x850_x800_xl_agp/</A>
Notice the need for the <A HREF="http://www.computerbase.de/bild/news/10254/3/" target="_new">molex power connector on the X800XL</A> since it draws more than the AGP but well under PCIe (Guru3D says 50-65W[max under 3Dmk]).
So for those of you waiting for these new AGP cards, the wait may not be that long.
