Re: 939 motherboard both agp & PCI Express slot

I know Asrock has a Mobo with PCI-E and AGP and its supposed to be pretty
darn good for the price.

I apologise if this has been asked before but can anyone recommend a 939
socket motherboard that has both pci and agp trying to upgrade a pretty
high
spec system the cheapest way taking into account just bought a 7800gs
NVIDIA
agp card. System presently has 4x 300gb sata drives and 4x ide devices
along
with 2 gig ocz platinum memory and 3400mhz athlon 64 processor. basically
I
think my cheapest option is to switch to 939 socket in some form with
maybe
a 3800 due to financial restraints but I don't want to bin the 7800 agp as
its so new but it would give me a pci upgrade path later or would I be
better staying with my msi 754 socket board and changing to the 3700
processor which are getting rare as hell thank god for e-bay thanks for
any
advice
