Not worth it. Your card is recent enough where something faster/better worn't be worth the extra $$$. It's not gonna go THAT much faster if you get 7 series AGP nVidia card. Keep what you got until you have enough for the PCI-E card, new motherboard, new processor, memory, and PCI-E compliant power supply. Bandwidth will be limited (bottlenecked) because of the AGP bus on your motherboard. PCI-E x16 is much better.

There are still a lot of high-end AGP cards available. You didn't say how fast your AGP slot will go. Is it 8X?
