I believe Chaintech is a good graphics card manufacturing company.

That was supposed to be the real launch. In theory there should be no difference between the PCI-E and AGP versions whatsoever. They were quoted as saying "PCI-E in October, AGP in November". ATi are very, very far behind on this one. They're aiming for November/December.
