DVI is available as an addon for the 965G boards:

You can purchase (for around $20) an 'sDVO' card which plugs into the PCI-E
slot and offers DVI support in various flavors. This is just an adapter
board which connects the onboard graphics chip with a DVI connector using
the sDVO portion of the PCI-E standard; it's not an external graphics
adapter. You are right though, Intel doesn't offer a stand-alone PCI-E
graphics adapter.

Have fun,
