AGP or PCI-E, PCI-E more recommended? Do most motherboards today come with both AGP and PCI-E slots? I was under the impression that your board either had AGP or PCI-E. Knowing that I can't reuse my AGP GeForce 4 on practically any new motherboard blocks a lot of my would-be upgrades.

So, correct me if I'm wrong, but otherwise take note of what your motherboard supports. AGP is being phased out in favor of PCI-Express. There are cheap cards for AGP and PCI-E, but you'll most likely find the absolute lowest prices in the AGP lineup. Not that it matters - you're locked into whatever your motherboard supports.
