So the deal is I want to get a new dual core CPU but I don't have the shillings for a PCI-X video card. So what I need is a motherboard capable of dual core goodness with an AGP slot, the only one I've found so far is an Asus P5P800-SE and I've called every f***ing place in Brisbane and noone has them.

Does anyone know of a different motherboard that does what I want or another computer shop outside of;

You mean PCI-E and what's AGP :)

I'd wait till you can afford ir, agp is dead

what skitza said

I made the jump to an AGP-based Socket939 motherboard due to budget constraints, and I regretted it. There is a very limited and expensive upgrade path for graphics cards if you stick to AGP.

Save up a bit for a PCIe graphics card. They are cheaper than their AGP equivalents if you aren't aware.

I'm running a ASRock 939Dual SATA2, with an AMD Athlon X2-3800+ and an AGP GeForce 5700. I don't need a fast graphics card at the moment, and when I do, that'll be for Spore and Supreme commander, at which time I'll buy something like a PCIe 7600GT.

This motherboard also gives me the ability to use a SocketAM2/SocketAM3 CPU, which I'll do at some point (the problem is I need to buy new RAM at that point).

Well then this computer is speaking to you from beyond the grave! woooooooo

Always has to be one f***ing smart ass :)
