Looking all over for the geforce 7600GT AGP but having no luck. Anyone know where I can find this video card. I am stuck with AGP slot and this card would be within my budget if I could locate one.
 
Better question. Is there much difference between the 7600GT and 7600GS AGP. See the GS available within my price range. Just have read a heck of a lot more on the GT.

Not a whole lot. The GS is a sick overclocker and after you do the core voltmod you'll be performing on par or better than the gt.
 
What is the core voltmod. Very close to just getting this one as the other is almost impossible to find.
 
The GT has higher core and memory clocks, uses better RAM which is capable of running faster, and I believe the GS uses DDR2 whereas the GT uses GDDR3.

No, the 7900 GS uses GDDR3 ram.
 
The 7600GT is approximately 35% faster from the benchmarks I've seen. The core and memory speeds differ by quite a bit. The 7600GS is stock at 400core / 400 memory (800 if your'e referring to ddr2). Look at what I'm running my GT at in my sig (no voltmod)
 
I really want the 7600GT agp. Problem is finding one. Searched all over but no luck. Is this card still made and I just have to wait for it to come in stock? Newegg doesnt list it at all. The one spot I did find it was a leadtek version on Amazon but they are out of stock too with a reported 4-6 weeks for delivery. I can wait that long if I can get one.
 
Some dealer from Europe was selling a bunch of them for the equivalent of $240 US on ebay a few weeks ago. For that price, you'e better off finding a 7800GS AGP cheaper. From what I've read, 7600GT AGP is hard to find because only a few companies (Leadtek and XFX come to mind) created a bridge chip to allow the 7600GT to be used with AGP. Perhaps they found that it was not worth it to them monetarily.

Dont matter either way he was referring to the 7600GS not the 7900. ZXN didnt read the post clear enough and pulled info for the wrong card.

And the 7600GS does in fact use GDDR2 from what i have seen, It is possible that some manufacturers made some with GDDR3 but i have yet to see any.
