Near the end of this month there will be boards available with the 
nVidia nForce4 chipset which provides PCI Express for Socket 939 and 
940.  Examples will be the Abit AN8, Gigabyte K8NXP, Asus A8N, and MSI 
K8N.  I imagine these boards will be hard to get your hands on until 
early next year, though.

VIA also has a similar chipset, and boards using it will probably be 
available around the same time as nVidia's.
