Kind of bazaar but just when you think AGP finally R.I.P. Sapphire is set to release an AGP version of the ATI Radeon 4650.

It blows my mind that they are still making AGP cards, But kind of cool. It would be nice if they made a decent (X1650Pro range) low profile card. The tape deck that I converted to a HTPC works nice, but would be great to play some better games on my LCD TV especially now I upgraded it from a Sempron to an Athlon 64. The 6200 is the best low profile AGP card I can get my hands on.
