Will there be new 939 AGP based choices?

[nweibley]

Since I am getting a bit weary of my Neo2 and all of it's quirkyness, I am wondering if there are any manufacturers planning on developing new 939 AGP based boards. I would love to get nForce4, but I cannot justify the cost when I would need a PCI-Express video card and I already have an AGP based X800 XT PE...

So, while I am fairly confident that nVidia won't be releasing a new AGP-based nForce chipset anytime soon, are there any new boards in the works? Perhaps a DFI lanparty with AGP?

Word on the street is..

as far as i know there will be agp & pci-e

be ugly to have customers spend $500 on a new video card and then find out that you got no new board (939) to run it on right?


Your guess is as good as mine if we ever see it though.

I take it you guys haven't heard the latest gossip from the Inquirer that the nF3 Ultra may be "cancelled"

Hmm noted here..

we are doing a 939 NF3 board regardless of what you might hear rumored on the web

[nweibley]

Good to hear. I'm really wanting another quality option or two.

yeah id like to see that dammed DFI 939 AGP board come out. the DFI 754 is such a nice mb id love to stuff my FX-53 into a 939 version of it for sure! BUT only god knows when that will be? so i wont be holding my breath.

peace perc,

Well if the news is true, sure I'll hold my upgrade plan to NF4

[gocchin]

I'd love to see a DFI agp board... it'd be a shame to see my modded XT PE go to waste....

[DevilsRejection]

gocchin you will! trust me! I saw it at the DFI party at CES, with my own two eyes.

I'd really love to see a s939 AGP solution from DFI, too. Now I have a little more hope for my next upgrade.

Sounds good! I have my hopes up now!

Hmm, thanks for that . I wanted to wait for the DFI lanparty 939 AGP board, but I gave up even before I read the rumour, when I read at anandtech's CES report a week or two ago that the board was there, but not in final PCB yet. I figured it was going to be a good 1-2 months wait before I would be able to get the board based on that, so I gave up and went with the k8ns ultra-939.

p.s. - is that you in your avatar. If so, pleasure to make your acquaintance

I reckon there must be a lot of people out there with good AGP cards that feel the same.
I can't see why it's taken so long tho, esp as the Nforce4 boards have started (or are about to) shipping.

Nooo. See the bit that says "Avatar supplied by Major Slaughters sister"

[austinbmxnig]

[Pr0d1gy]

Major Slaughter, I wanna slip my tubesteak into your sister.

I always get a strrange feeling when it comes to considering a DFI board. I find the prospect mouthwatering but at the same time, my blood runs cold.....

[cantankerous]
