To my accelerated time sense, it’s only a few years since everyone was supposed to bin their old motherboard because it wouldn’t support AGP graphics cards. AGP was the future of graphics cards, etc.

Now, if you want to upgrade your graphics card, you have to get PCI-E. So throw away your old AGP-supporting motherboard to get one that supports PCI-E. In which case you probably also have to throw away the CPU and RAM and upgrade them to match the motherboard specs.

I know that PC manufacturers have to stay in business and that planned obsolescence is how it’s done but- bah.
