    first of all hello, nice to meet you, second your wrong the 6200 has 4 pipelines rendering, and is a budget direct x 9 card at 50.00 bucks. pci express 16 just means how fast the graphics reach your monitor in lamens terms, as agp is max of 8x. Currently 8x agp is not ever been fully utilized, that's why some of us tend to stick with old stuff. now the 6800gt does in fact utilize 16 rendering pipelines. and you can get one for about 276.00 bucks, as far as gaming goes you can always go with the 6600gt which in my opinion is a good card for todays games. now tommorows games will not run all that great on a 6200 but will run good on a 6600gt and run great on a 6800gt for probably 2 more years. then there is the awesome new 7800gtx which runs 600 bucks but will hold it's own for another 4 years or more, hell thats what the xbox 360 has, I'm saving up for one as we speak but I also need a new motherboard for it.
