View Full Version : Geek question: any Dells have AGP slots (for my video card)?

So I need to buy a new desktop...but just 4 months ago, I dropped $160 on the AGP-compatible Matrox dual DVI video card so I could set up my twin 2001fps.

But looking at the specs on every model on the Dell website, it looks like NONE of them have AGP slots...only PCI (and now PCI-express) slots.

Are AGP slots simply a thing of the past? Do I have any options other than buying another expensive video card? Are all dual-DVI cards now PCI or PCI-express compatible?

I didn't look in detail, but if you're buying a new desktop now, if it has a video expansion slot, it's going to be a PCI-E slot.
