Best 8x AGP Video Card?

I'm looking to upgrade an old machine to the best AGP video card out there... it has to last for a while, since further update will be a major update.



I've always liked ATI chipsets in the past.



I'm looking at this one:

I am looking for suggestions.

If you read the reviews you'll see the people who bought it are getting great gaming performance for an AGP card. Even doing good with Crysis.

Althou the Nvidia 7950GT is a nice card it only runs DX9, not a factor if you plan on running XP forever but, if you're a gamer and plan on putting Vista in sometime or already have it you'll want DX10. Nvidia has kind of forgotten the AGP crowd while ATI has some decent DX10 AGP cards out.|||That's about as good as it's going to get on AGP.



EVERY card that's on the market is severely bottlenecked by the outdated AGP bus.
