MB for AMD64 supports AGP and PCIe at same time?

[severtki]

Any recommendations for a 64-bit AMD MB that has both AGP and PCIe slots? If I populate both slots, will that enable dual-display, or can I only use one at a time?

TIA,
Kirk

Wait for ULI chipset. Not out yet, but read here:

and it can only run 1 at a time.

Really? The last page of the article mentions:
"... the boards ability to run PCIe, AGP, and PCI graphics all at the same time on the same motherboard. " Doesn't that mean you could have 3 cards installed at once?

You can actually have as many graphics cards as you please - neither PCIE nor PCI are limited to one VGA device.

Most graphics cards are dual-head capable from ONE card, you knew that, didn't you?

Anyone know an ETA for this?

"Last week" good enough? ASRock are already shipping one board.
