Hey, I heard about the new graphics cards that will come equipped with DirectX 10, will they require new kind of AGP slots or will they work on the exsiting AGP slots (I am asking about AGP b'coz I dont have PCI express) :cry:

AFAIK, dx10 cards will be released around the time vista will be released as vista uses some dx10. DX10 cards will most probably not need more than pcie to run. Although dx10 is supposed to be 8 times faster, if nvidia wants, they can released a dumbed down agp version later.

According to me these cards should work on 8x AGP slot. I doubt whether it will work on 4x AGP slots.
