Hi,

An AGP card would be preferred to a PCI card.  It handles graphics much
faster and
direct to the CPU rather than being throttled back by the bottlenecks in
the system bus.

Also, new boards are now coming out with 8X AGP slots

return it for one with an AGP slot

card is of significant importance to me ('good' meaning able to handle most
current games).  Is a PCI card comparable to the AGP equivalent?  Or should
I return this one and get an AGP compatible motherboard?  Thanks for the help.
