i would go ahead and get a board w. pcie on it, theres no performance difference but unless u have a kick ass agp card already that you want to keep i don't see y u want agp. i've done a bit of research on the 939 boards and all of the top rated boards dfi+ asus have pcie/sli .

you mean pcie, not pci-x.

And it may be worth ebaying your video card and moving on to pcie. Most manufacturers are only making performance boards with 939 + pcie.
