Coming in about 6 weeks ULI will have a board out that supports PCI-Express as well as AGP. Currently all boards on the market which include AGP and PCI-Express have poor AGP performance. This one has solid performance on both.

"We are glad to say that ULi AGP is the first AGP on any PCIe board that doesn't require compromises. Those of you who want to take your high-end AGP card to a new PCIe board will be ecstatic over the performance of your AGP video card on the ULi board."

I'd like to see who picks this chipset up and uses it in their motherboards. Very good chipset maker.
This is a very good option for someone who jumped in on Socket 754 and wants to upgrade to Dual Core or PCI-Express down the line without empting their wallet when switching platforms (like me).

Another board review with the ULi M1695 chipset.
OCs to 400HTT aircooled.
Dual PCI-E with riser card.
 
thanks for the info, looks cool! Good for people who can't afford or dont want to upgrade everything at once to the next gen hardware.
 
Ooh, that's for me- i was wondering how i was going to upgrade my skt 754 stuff without having to buy another vid card. woohoo.
 
nice looks like the agp preformed 10% better then the pci-e but this will be great for ppl who cant upgrade gfx with mobo

Yeah, will be nice to see a new revision of this board after they tweak with the PCI-E.
