    Hi Alan,

    Yes, PowerStorm 300 PCI version is expensive ( > $800.00), but the AGP
    version is less than $150.00 (pricewatch.com). My PWS600au does not
    have AGP slot so I will have to wait for it on eBay. I can also wait
    for 3DLabs Oxygen VX1 PCI version, which supports both.

    I appreciate your reply.

    Best regards,

    /Tim
