What 7xxx series features? -- "War is the continuation of politics by other means. It can therefore be said that politics is war without bloodshed while war is politics with bloodshed."

Be sure your Power Supply can handle whichever you choose. You'll need an extra power connection for the AGP version.

Those features are 6600GT as well. -- "War is the continuation of politics by other means. It can therefore be said that politics is war without bloodshed while war is politics with bloodshed."

Tom's hardware found practically NO improvement over 8x AGP when using PCIE by the way. AGP 8x is good for years more use and Asrock have stepped in with no competition ! >> Stay informed about: 7600GS or 6600gt? (AGP)

It significantly > out performs the 6600GT in the benchmarks I've seen. Plus it has the new > 7xxx series features. I was going to go with this setup...but I think I goofed up. I purchased a single 7600gs...but the one with 512mb ram...but failed to see that it has slower memory [should have gone with the 256 memory model 7600gs]. I was going to match it for a sli setup [purchase the second one later]... So, now I have a question about sli setups. How equivalent do the boards need to be? Could I match the 7600gs with 512mb ddr with a 7600gs 256mg ddr2 board? The gpu's are the same, but memory a bit different? I'd rather go with the 256 faster memory model of the 7600gs...I think? In fact, just for info, how different can the boards be in a sli setup? Could one, say for example, pair up an old 6600GT with a 7600gs [given that both support sli...uh, and the motherboard too of course]? >> Stay informed about: 7600GS or 6600gt? (AGP)
