Is it an AGP, PCI, or PCI-Express card?

I voted AGP (for my home computer) here I work it is a pci card.

I'm no fan boy of the pci express graphic card...

I'm just wondering how many people use what after some stuff about the nVidia drivers.

I don't know how long it might be untill AGP may join ISA in the text books but I don't think it will be standard (if it still is) within a year or two.

I know down here AGP cards are usually ecnomy cards in the 128mb-512mb range. Vs. The PCI-E cards in the budget-midgrade cards. We just don't get many high end cards :(

GF7600s or ATI X1600s about as high as we have. My computer uses a PCI-Express x16 bus with a Geforce 6200.

My card is nVidia GeForce4 MX 440 with AGP8x 64 MB using the nVidia 8774 PBI.

Edit: I now have GeForce 6200 256 MB (AGP) using the nVidia 8774 PBI.

ATI Radeon 9600Pro 128MB (removed blower and replaced it with aluminum chipset cooler from Zalman). but I already ordered new video card Gforce 6600LE 256MB with passive cooling for my new computer, possible ABIT KN9 Ultra with dual Gbit LAN cards and AM2 socket with AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ (dualcore), for memory I think I should buy 2x512MB Corsair 533MHz DDR2 ECC sticks.

I have a Intel Extreme Graphics, a integrated card very common (yes :?) in most middle-low-end laptops. Actually, I can't run more that 1024 x 780 on PC-BSD.

Okay, I changed VGA, I now have GF4 Ti4200/128 running with "nvidia-driver-1.0.8776" from ports and NvAGP=1 on xorg.conf

glxgears average
16413 frames in 5.0 seconds = 3278.486 FPS

Running on FreeBSD 6.1 Release.

When I did this I still had conflicts when the nVidia AGP tried to load so it defaulted to the BSD AGP and I could see it if I CTRL-ALT-F1 and looked. If the same thing is happening to you put hint.agp.0.disabled="1" in the /boot/device.hints file and it will then load the nVidia AGP...as their appendix H (http://download.nvidia.com/freebsd/1.0-8774/README/appendix-h.html)
