Yes. The guys who made DirectX don't want to support WinXP. Can't imagine why.

what's the possibility of direct X 10 coming to agp cards
Not good, I'd say.

If DX10 AGP cards are released, I wouldn't expect them to be high-end gaming cards. Probably more along the lines of an 8500GT.

I read a while ago that ATI and their manufacturing partners were planning on AGP HD 2400 and 2600 cards.

I'm not sure what nVidia's plans are for AGP, if they even have any plans at all for the dying interface.

ATI will most likely produces AGP DirectX 10 cards, it's been in their forcast for a while. You'll prob see AGP DirectX 10 cards come out from ATI soon to help fill the remainder of the low end gaming market which is what they classify AGP now. Nvidia has no plans of making any DirectX 10 AGP cards from here on out. The 7xxx series was the end of the line for AGP on Nvidia's platform.

Heh, I remember when the 7800GS was released for AGP. I was almost certain no more AGP cards would be made after that, then they made the 7600GT, 7900GS, 7950GT, X1600XT, X1950XT and a bunch more. I sure was proved wrong. But now I'm fairly sure that a high end card wont be made with DX10 for AGP... I think. Heh.

That link is a rumor. It is in no way comfrimed that Nvidia will produce an AGP line.

They most certainly are. Here's ATI's answer to AGP X10! Fair priced!

You can bet your mothers ceremonial bull scrotum full of dried Yak jizz that Nvidia wont set on the bench and play water boy!
