    yo Quiero AGP

    I need an AGP slot, and my computer, being old, doesn't have one. Is there some sort of converter that will convert a PCI or ISA slot into an AGP slot? What would they be called?

    Thanks

    It's called a motherboard upgrade.

    The memory throughput on a PCI slot is TERRIBLE. Fact in point: The best video card available in PCI is a 32mb Radeon 7000 (piece of ****e ). You really should consider a mobo. upgrade. What's your CPU?
