will there be one? i looked around and it seems there was only lga-775. i have northwood pci-e vc. is there any hope for me without getting a new cpu?
 
i think there are some 478 915 boards but they only work with prescotts, so your out of luck. I beleive asus made one, but didn't sell it in the us. I had the same idea as you a while back.
 
I think the question should be:

How long can I go before I upgrade my motherboard?

Your Northwood CPU will likely keep you in the game pretty well, but PCI Express support is mostly unnecessary at this point. Wait until your next system-wide upgrade if you can.
