Has anyone heard any news about motherboards that will support both the Athlon 64 CPU 939pin line and PCI Express. I will be building a new custom PC soon and I will be going with an Athlon 64 CPU and would like the PCI option instead of AGP for future upgrades. I'm just wondering if there are any companies looking into this yet or if it will be quite a while yet?

Thanks

The CHIPSETS are still in development for that. They should be released in 1-2 months. Boards with those chipsets should become readily available 1-2 months afterward.
