These days the radeons are a bit faster, and if you go to the top end (radeon 9800xt, geforce fx 5900 ultra), the radeon will win with quite a margin. However, ATI has always made bad drivers. In the past they've even completely abandoned cards that were only a year old, they just don't feel like making drivers for it anymore. Contrast this with Nvidia whose drivers still work for the TNT2 cards of years and years ago, and who seem to have a much much better compatibility record. About the AGP 8x, this will also work in boards that support agp 4x, but NOT in boards that only support 2x. So it should work for you too.
