ECS is showing an interesting hybrid PCI Express motherboard in Taiwan. The board, based around Intel's Grantsdale chips, is dubbed the 915P-A.
It sports an AGP slot alongside the swanky new PCI Express graphics slot. It also has memory slots for either DDR or DDR2 memory sticks.

    In tests, ECS found that while Direct X8 performance may be impacted by around 20 per cent on higher end graphics cards, the performance hit in DirectX 9 games is around five per cent or less.

    Man thats a lot of extra work to do on a motherboard.
