i read somewhere that pci card are becoming obsolete. i want to know which one is better: pci-express or agp? if pci-e is rather new on the market, does that mean that agp will become obsolete soon?
 
Hey

There are several things you may consider. My answer is: IT DEPENDS.

PRICE-WISE: The motherboard/graphics card combos are usually cheaper.

PERFORMANCE-WISE: Often identical performance as the capabilities of the AGP slot have not yet been exhaused.

FUTURE-PROOF: Definitely PCI-Express because there is a clear movement towards the production of cards for this new technology.

Overall...for a high-end system with future upgradability in mind, the clear choice would be PCI-Express.
