Intel graphics vs. ATIIntel graphics vs. ATIPosted Jun 14, 2007 0:45 UTC (Thu) by vondo (guest, #256)In reply to: Intel graphics vs. ATI by dark Parent article: R500 initial driver release
You're looking for an AGP card? First, I don't think that'll happen. PCI-e would be great, though. Second, don't take this personally, but you don't sound like you'll drop a "pile of money" on a video card, but more like $100. That's the cost of the cards I buy too, so I'm not knocking it, but neither of us is dropping $500 every six months.

Intel graphics vs. ATI Posted Jun 14, 2007 1:09 UTC (Thu) by dark (✭ supporter ✭, #8483) [Link] Ironically, my latest computer uses AGP because there weren't any PCI-e cards I could use :) Now that I have it, I can't upgrade without replacing the mainboard, and once I do that I'll want to replace everything anyway. And probably go with Intel for the graphics, instead of AMD/VIA like I usually do. (You hear that, AMD?)You're right, I wouldn't buy a new graphics card twice a year. I would buy one once, though, and I wouldn't mind spending several hundred euros on a high-end card that comes with full specs. I'm just not willing to budge on the spec issue. There's something deeply wrong with someone who wants to sell me hardware but refuses to tell me how to use it. I can't help it that all of the usable cards can be gotten for $20 on eBay, it's up to the manufacturers to change that :)
