randomizer Gainward cards are made by Palit, who have been making ATI cards for years. This is a business move only, pretty simple.Reply -
harrycat88 Gainward makes good cards. I remember when everyone was making crippled 7800GS AGP cards with only 256MB of memory while Gainward was making 512MB AGP cards that worked just as good as the PCI-E version. It would be nice if Gainward made a 4870 AGP card it would bring life to all those antique systems and save people over $600 or more.Reply -

harrycat88 Ogdin, your retarded.Reply
All 3 of my systems use AGP cards and they all have AM2 processors.
(1) 2.4GHz Opteron Santa Ana 1216, (1) AMD X2 6000+ 3.0GHz, and (1) AMD X2 6000+ 3.1GHz.
They are quite a few AGP motherboards that run AM2 CPU's and two of my systems can even run Quad Cores. Can you say "DUH"?
