I need to find an SATA/PCI Express motherboard compatible with all of my old hardware. I have four IDE drives, three PCI cards, and an AGP graphics card.
After some searching I found the Abit VT8 demoed at CeBIT last March. It seems an almost idealic solution but it's not available yet. Does anyone know when this is coming out?
Currently available is the ECS 915P-A with an "AGP compatible" slot But the PCI route is slower performing plus it has only one IDE channel.. as mentioned I have four drives in my old system so that's not giong to do.
What other options are there? I would prefer to upgrade to P4 570, Socket T LGA755 since that processor has got the highest scores in the software that I use (graphics apps, 3D rendering, video encoding).
Thank you for any suggestions you might have.
