Looking for Asus P4GD1 motherboard

Looking for Asus P4GD1 motherboard. I searched the entire internet.

If anyone runs across one let me know. It's got Intel socket 478 + PCI-E 16 slot.

I don't want to have to buy a whole new CPU. It's a conspiracy not to sell
478 boards with pci-e I tell ya!

I don't know if this will help, but maybe there's a P4 socket adapter? I remember in past years there were adapters for the different variations of the PIII, including Slot to Socket, and FCPGA to FCPGA2. But of course, these were for using newer CPUs with old motherboards, yet it's worth looking into if such a thing exists for the P4, it'll run you like $20-30 probably. Whether or not socket adapters have problems is unknown to me.

Yea I remember those lol. But this is not just a package conversion. The pin count changed so it's a no go.

Thanks yea that's the culprit. That topmicrousa off of the pricerunner didn't have it in stock.

Also more bad news for AGP. ATI canceled plans for X1800 AGP version and no 7800 in AGP.

I might just give up and buy a 6800 ultra (I have a 5900 now). But I really wanted the extra
framerate on the 7800 without buying a whole new core system.
