AGP Radeon X1800 Confirmed As Misprint

Initial reports that Diamond Multimedia would offer an AGP version of ATI's Radeon X1800 appear to be false. A misprint on Diamond's web site caused the confusion, but the company has confirmed that it has no plans to offer a Radeon X1800 with an AGP interface. Interestingly, ATI says that there are no technical limitations preventing graphics card manufacturers from melding the Radeon X1800 to AGP using ATI's Rialto bridge chip. The market for such a product may not be large enough to interest graphics card manufacturers, though.
