That would be about $200 USD right?
I heard news that some of Nvidia's 8 series will have an AGP interface. Not sure when they will come out.

Re: which Graphics card??
I would just buy new parts, AGP is horribly outdated.

Re: which Graphics card??
ok, so if i had £150 ($300 us) to spend on a mobo and a graphics card, what would people recommend, i am only using it for the internet and some pretty old games (X2: the threat and age of empires).
thanks for any help.

Re: which Graphics card??
Look into getting an ASUS one... look up motherboards in that brand and that have the same socket as your CPU and also that have a PCIe slot. Look around and check to see how good the reviews are and get one with good reviews, and see how much you have left over for a video card and look around for one of them too, lol. I'd send you some Newegg links, but they don't ship overseas.

Re: which Graphics card??
ok thankyou. if u can send me some links anyway thats great as i will probably be able to get them over here anyway. i wanted to get a motherboard that would facilitate me upgrading my processor in the near future, (couple of months) i dont know what to but whatever i could get for £150.
thanks

Re: which Graphics card??
Well... you could easily get an 8600 something or other and a good motherboard which would be like ~$200-250 for the video card and maybe ~$50-100 for a good motherboard. What socket CPU do you have?
