PCI-e AND AGP?

Hi Chaps & Chapesses,

I'm looking at replacing my Processor in order to make use of some new software. This will entail a motherboard swap and whilst googling I noticed that motherboards seem to either have AGP or PCI-E but not both.

If I buy an AGP equipped Mobo in order to make use of my old graphics card, will I be able to buy a replacement AGP card when the time comes for an upgrade? (is PCI-E going to become the predominant standard for graphics cards?)

Thanks,

N
