im looking to get another socket 939 motherboard, but im not sure which one to get...i want to get one that is good with overclocking, has agp, and possibly has pci-e, and maybe sli ?....the pci-e and sli isnt really important so if you know any good mobos without those two thats fine...

anyone know any good motherboards like that at a good price as well ?

whats more important, AGP or PCI-E (only one board has both lol)? What is a good price? Are you overclocking it hardcore?

ASRock Dual-SATA2 has both AGP and PCIe, and can take an upgrade card so you can upgrade to AM2 or w/e if you want. OCing with the Dual-SATA2 seems to be a bit hit-or-miss, but in general it seems to be a decent overclocker.

Otherwise I say get a DFI Lanparty Ultra-D; that board has no AGP slot, but it has dual X16 PCIe slots and can be modded to become an SLi board. It is also one of the best OCing boards out there.

i currently purchased a a64 x2 3800 and im gonna try to overclock it as much as i can...and for right now agp is more important i currently have a 6800gt agp and i dont think i will upgrade until next year or so...and a good price would be around $70 or less (for me at least)
