Disregarding what i said 5 min ago on modular RAM (sorry ... delusions of grandure).
Would it have to be AGP? afteall the data volumes pumping through that would probably be not that high, and with the PCI express being backwards compatible, this would evade a dying bus. -- with kind regards, Christian Unger
