as the title suggests im looking for a upgrade from my current motherboard. i want to keep my radeon 1950 xt agp video card. i want to make this conputer the best while still haveing a agp slot. later down the road i plan on building a entirely new computer with e-pci slots.

a bit off topic, but you could probably sell your x1950 AGP, and buy a PCI-e version for the same price, as the AGP version has a higher value.

and you did not specify whether you want intel or amd- 775 or AM2. either way, the boards with those sockets and agp slots are all dumbed-down value boards.

those are two AM2 boards, the first is MSI, the second is by biostar.

theres an intel board by gigabyte. as you can see, all of these boards do not have much features.

Yea I agree...Sell the x1950 agp on ebay and upgrade. It really is a waste to buy a new mobo that's agp standard...A REAL waste...

i want this build to be my last one for the agp era. i sort of want it more as a trophy than any thing else. later on down line i will build an entirely new system. so i need to find a good amd 64 board.
by the way im posting all of this with my wii.

any more help would be much appreciated.

AGP is dead. Sell the x1950 and go with PCIe. It's really pointless to build a new system based around AGP.
