Both AGP8 and PCI Express on a Motherboard

[mcl]

I'm somewhat disappointed today. I had read on Toms Hardware that VIA was
going to bring out the k8t890 chipset which was supposed to have both AGP8
and PCI Express. Saw it announced today on the via website and it said
nothing about AGP8. I want to upgrade my system but still make use of my All
In Wonder Radeon for now and then upgrade it sometime in the future. I
figured new mb, chip, box, memory now. (My 120 & 80 GB HD's would be OK for
now), then Serial Raid 0 sometime in the future and a new (some years from
now) future does it all ATI All In Wonder video card. This screws up my
plans. Does anyone know of any chipsets/mb's coming out that will have both
AGP8 and PCI-Express16 (and a few PCI _express x 1 slots) for those who
want to look foreword to the future without sh** caning our present video
cards just yet?

From what I have seen (a few of these boards if you REALLLLY dig)..
You'll find the same chipset but some have agp and some have pci express
so I am guessing that the 890 will "support" both as far as the chipset
goes, but we'll probably only see one of the slots on the board. (I
personally would love to see a dual solution come to the market)
