Sapphire Radeon X850XT PE AGP Review
(7 Comments) »Value and Conclusion
- Most probably the last high-end AGP card is priced at approximately $415. If you are looking for a 3D card that will be able to prolong the gaming life of your system by a considerable amount (unless you already are running a GeForce 6800 or something from the Radeon X800 series) then I think that this card is worth purchasing.
- Great performance
- Good GPU overclock
- Complete bundle
- Fan noise at start up
- Poor memory overclock
Is AGP dead? Not quite. If you want to game and absolutely have to stick to AGP for whatever reason, then I can only recommend this card. Great performance comes at a price though, and it is up to you to decide if you want to invest into this card or wait a bit and do a whole system upgrade. Unless some new AGP cards hit the market, this might well be the last high-end one.
