I meant for the video card itself
So did i. Most workstation cards come with 256MB as standard.

When PCI Express technology reaches consumers, it's Video cards will have the edge over 8x AGP slot cards, wouldn't you agree though Praetor? I am sure they won't be taxed for a while however
When they get to a mass production kinda deal yes I do agree as development for AGP cards and the porting-to of AGP cards wont be as advanced but for the next year I'd say, AGP wont be wiped out. Even when it is wiped out, the new standard, equivalently AGP16x, wont really be taxed for "neccesary" as it will be quite some time before AGP8x is seriously outdated
