Gainward have released a 20 pipe AGP 7800GS 512MB (basically a 7800GT 512MB in disguise). The card is aimed at peeps wanting the fastest graphics card available but are reluctant to upgrade to PCI-E, yet (mainly skt A/skt 478 users). Its not an official NV product hence NV would get upset if a 7800GT existed on AGP platform. So it seems Gainward have pulled a fast one as theres no denying this is a 7800GT (G70 core) 512MB AGP card. Although, if your running a A64 processor you'd be better of buying a PCI-E motherboard and 7800GT 256MB for the same price, and have the option of SLI in the future
