IM BACK ONLINE,
thx for the suggestions guys,
well this experience hasnt discouraged me yet, if anything its made me more determined to get this thing to work!! even if it break every part part in my computer, its going to work!
i made the clamp tighter, its good now, but then again it leaked like 4 days later for me

i think it might be the barb, when i was cutting off the thread, i might have used a vice on the bard part and made a pit in it or something, dont remember anymore
popped my old KYRO2 in about a minute ago and YES, AGP port isn't fried

the old 8500 actually cost me $60us with s/h new, so thats why i miss that card
i was actually gonna buy a card yesturday a VisionTek GeForce 4 Ti 4200 128 MB for only 60us +s/h used, but i just found out the auction ended

as for 64mb, dont think thats a possibility anymore, i think i'll move to 128mb now
as for my setup, i was thinking of what i can do with it, i thought of externalizing it but putting everything into and old aptiva case, cause there really isn;t much i can do with it in my tower, i dont have a lot of room.
