currently have...

Athlon 64 3000+ S754
2x512mb Kingston DDR400
BFG Geforce 6800GT 256mb AGP
Asus K8V Deluxe ATX motherboard
80gb ATA100 Western Digital
200gb SATA Segate
Antec Super LanBoy ATX case

I have been wondering if there is any way I can get a new AGP micro ATX motherboard and build a small small form factor rig around my 6800GT. I do not want to buy another expensive video card, I'd just like to get rid of my big ATX case.

I plan to give the rest of my computer to my parents with the 80gb hard drive and such, so I could just use the 200gb drive along with the 6800GT, and new CPU/ram for the new motherboard. I don't really care what socket the motherboard has, AMD preferably that supports a newish CPU, nothing older than what I currently have. I just really want it to support AGP.

Also, I realize that any potential AGP to PCIE bridges would likely not fit in a micro ATX case seeing as they don't give much room to play with. But are there such adapters that can bridge a AGP video card to a PCIE socket on a motherboard?

Does anyone have any suggestions?
