" The EVGA "Superclocked" model is able to beat all of the other cards in our tests. This means that the card can outperform the ATI Radeon X850XT PE even while performing additional tasks that the Shader Model 2.0b card cannot handle, such as HDR. The BFG is not far behind. It beats the ATI Radeon X800XT, but falls shy of the X850XT PE's frame speeds by a hair. But then again it is doing more work than the ATI card ".
" The GeForce 7800GS is a solid card for anyone looking for Shader Model 3.0 support on the AGP platform. It clearly is head and shoulders above the GeForce 6800 Ultra, which also provides SM 3.0 functionality. Going head to head against the ATI Radeon X800XT and X850XT Platinum Edition, it is the AGP king ".
" As for the crown on the 7800GS king, the EVGA "Superclocked" version has the extra clock cycles to put it ahead of the BFG "Overclocked" version. There is rumor of another version clocked even higher than the "Superclocked" version from the guys at EVGA. From what we can tell, we wouldn't be surprised to see additional cards with higher clock speeds from other vendors as well ".
Going by that its possible the fastest agp card avail and even besting ati running p.s 3.0 against p.s 2.0
P.S, I especially like Nvidias nice opengl support in Doom3
