First DirectX 10 AGP card
We've just got our hands on the first DirectX 10 card to appear in AGP format, a Sapphire HD 2600 Pro.
AGP continues to be hugely popular in the retail market since many people want to upgrade their aging PCs with AGP motherboards.
I'm informed there is no support for HDMI, since ATI can't get the audio controller won't wok across AGP. This is its only major drawback, since HDCP keys are loaded onto it and regular drivers work no problem.
It's an early sample, which perhaps explains why it has a rubber bandage covering what might be the PCI-Express to AGP bridge chip.
We'll throw it in our labs testing now and bring you DirectX 10 and DirectX 9 scores next week.
