I've been looking to upgrade for a while, but I don't want to give up my unlocked 6800 just yet, which is why I'm looking for a mobo with AGP.

I'm planning on getting either a 3000+ or 3200+ Venice core A64 processor, but wanted to find a good motherboard for it. I found this motherboard on Newegg, but there aren't any reviews for it. Has anyone read anything about this mobo?

Looky Here!

Are there any other good mobos w/ AGP? I've read good things about the MSI nForce3 board, but I've read that it has a number of glitches...anyway, help would be great.

On another note- how much more gaming performance would I get from this upgrade? I currently run a Barton @ 2.2 gHz on an Asus A7N8X board.

Thanks!

Anandtech got a article about 939 boards with AGP that will be able to run the Athlon X2. DFI boards with AGP aint have a Bios revision yet, but Abit AV8 and a couple MSI yes....I m in the same boat but I want a board with AGP supporting the doble core CPU..

did you ask AG or rgone at dfi.street when they'll have a bios for it? seems odd as they have bios that support the x2s on the nf4s and nf3s.

I have the Epox 9NDA3+ and it's been wonderful so far. The board is listed on a list at another forum as dual core capable but I can't vouch for that personally.
