Overclockers.com have the 939 socket (A64) on preorder with PCI-E capability. 4 DIMMs in dual channel configuration, shame there's no support for DDR2.

Anyway, the future is getting closer.

PCI-Express graphics cards are very abundant now and getting a little more affordable with greater product differentiation.

ATI or

Nvidia

Of course, there's many more suppliers than just o/cers out there....

I might just wait a little bit on the PCI X and the 939. Two00lbwaster told me about the board that is in spook's link and hopefully soon more manufacturers will release similar boards so i can compare before i buy probably near easter time next year.....

It will make a difference mate as the AGP is now at a stand still...

Getting a board with PCI Express will mean that the board is more futureproof than an AGP even though at the monet the speeds are similar...

Look at toms hardware and that should give you the info needed
