My sister got me the card above in the PCI version (from Newegg.com) for
Christmas.
Would it be worth the shipping and restocking fees to exchange this card for
the same card but in an AGP?

My PC:
i440BX chipset, 1X/2X AGP, PIII 800 Coppermine, 384MB RAM, Win98SE, 17" CRT
monitor.
My current video card is a GeForce 2 MX 400 AGP.

I play games like Half-Life, Iceland Dale, Morrowind, Tiger Woods PGA, etc.
I also do some video editing, not much.

Thanks for all input, advice and opinions!

I cancelled the original and rewrote it.
Please see post with: "AGP vs. PCI GeForceFX 5200 (in a 440BX mobo) ?"
as Subject.
thank you,
