Looking to buy an Athlon64 chip, skt939 3000+, and want to know which MSI nforce3 board to get with it. Plan on buying an upgraded chip later.

MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum (MS-7025-010) is the board you want.

PCIe/PCI or APG/PCI?

PCI/AGP and thank you for helpin me out. MSI's website is vague about the CPUs this board supports.

Neo2 supports all Socket 939 processors, Neo (without the 2) was for all Socket 754 processors.
