WTD: AGP Graphics Card

[synsei]

Hi all,

Does anyone have an old AGP graphics card knocking around that they no longer need nor want. The one in my step-daughters PC has gone kaput and we don't have the funds to buy a new computer so I said I'd ask about. She only uses her PC for school work along with a little browsing and Facebook stuff so it won't need to be a powerhouse. I'm sorry but it would need to be cheap as funds are scarce for us just now... :eyebrows:

I got a PCI one unfortunately.

No worries Stan, thanks anyway... :)

I think AGP cards are quite hard to find now, I sold my last one a couple of years back on eBay. I think that's your only option if somebody here does not have one lying around. I will check to see if we have an old one at work I could 'liberate' away from our stock list, but I am off until next Monday now.

That's a beggar, I threw one away last month on the grounds that I'll never ever use it.

Thanks for that Tim, I really appreciate it ;)

Yes ... I think I do ... Funnily enough, just today i took an old pc I forgot I had and found in the loft to the office today and it's def not pci!
It's a big bugger with a massive fan on it ... Think it was the dogs in the day!
I'll have a look for you tomorrow ...

Awesome Hamish, thanks ;)

Failing getting an AGP card, how about a PCI one, should be fine for what the pc is used for. Perhaps there is even on board graphics that was not used.

[synsei]

No onboard graphics unfortunately Alex and PCI graphics might struggle with some of Facebook's extra features I think. I'm not 100% sure of this as I steer well clear of FB myself ;)

I've definately got one (I think I have 3) so if Hamish doesn't have one let me know and you can have it for the price of the postage which will be about £3 i would reckon.

There's a card on its way from Nigel (Vinylspinner) but I won't know if it's compatible until I fit it so I'll keep you in mind chaps. Thank you all ;)
