    For BFG AGP Graphic Card owners

    Only for US residents.


    If there are any people still around who use AGP Cards, which happen to be BFG, then you might be in for a free upgrade.

    The PCI Express bus type for graphics cards is the standard going forward for all systems and motherboards. In fact, AGP is no longer being supported. If you were to upgrade your system or motherboard now or in the future, you would need a PCI Express graphics card to support that new system, which would improve your overall performance in 3D games and video processing. We’d like to encourage you to trade in your current working AGP BFG graphics card for a BFG PCI Express graphics card. The chart below shows BFG AGP cards and their closest PCI Express equivalent.

    Now, for a limited time, if you send us your BFG AGP card in good, working condition, we’ll send you the PCI Express equivalent at no cost to you. If you want to upgrade to an even better performing card, there is a nominal fee to do so. Offer good for U.S. customers only. If you choose to take advantage of this offer, please remember that you would need to upgrade your current AGP-based system to a PCI Express-based system at your expense in order for the new card to work. That means upgrading your motherboard and possibly your CPU (processor).



    This offer looks pretty good, albeit you'll most likely need to upgrade your motherboard/cpu if the AGP card is in your main PC, but if you have one lying around spare, you can get a mid-range 9 series card.

    This is why I love BFG. I'm using an 8800 GTX though, so I don't qualify for anything...
