Are all video cards going to go PCI Express? I've heard rumors that the newer
ATI video cards will only be PCI Express. True?

If they are PCI Express only with no AGP bridge of any sort, they've just
killed a ton of sales. It's too soon to retire AGP, they should give it
until at least the end of 2005. I for one, even as a gamer, won't be giving
up my AGP motherboard until I'm good and ready to do so...I won't be pushed.
Maybe not everyone, but I suspect I also speak for a lot of other people
with that statement.

For certain values of "newer".
 
Have faith in capitalism. As long as there are a large number of AGP
motherboards out there, there will be AGP video cards.
