Consider the nVidia nForce Pro 2200 instead of the nForce4 as well. 
If you want SLI and/or an extra x4-8 PCIe channels for a storage
controller, go for the Pro 2200 + 2050 combination.  It's available
in a select, few single socket mainboards.

If you need PCI-X, get one with the AMD8131 (or AMD8132) added,
although those are almost always dual-socket.

I'd mention the ServerWorks HT1000, but it doesn't have PCIe video,
just x8 for storage.  I guess the HT2000+HT1000 is an option, but
then I've only seen those in dual-socket (and I like the
nFPro2200+2050+AMD8131 better there).
