What's this?!

What is a bridge chip used for on these cards? Do they need to modify an existing PCI- express chip to have AGP capabilities?

the card is native to PCI-express, the bridge chip allows it to be used on AGP platforms

Is't that an old article?

I'm think there are a few much better AGP cards available right now.

7800GS is loads faster then the X1600 series, its a really nice card for AGP, just not with a nice price tag

7800GS blows X1600XT out of the water.
