http://www.asus.com They just released a 8X AGP card. but beware, ATI has some minor issues with their 9700 pro and 8x boards.
ATI states it's the MB fault and the MB companies say it's ATI
Just picked up a 9700 pro to replace my Ti4600 only gained 5 -10 FPS Hopefully I can spend some time tweaking this card to pull some more FPS
Now this was comparing my Ti 4600 @ 1024 x768 - 32bit to the ATI's 1200x1600 @32 bit but the refresh rate was killing my eyes.
Getting around 60 -70 FPS at that res on Omaha
