Graphic cards usually work with most standard motherboards. What you want to look at is that the cpu socket is the same as the socket on the mobo, and that the mobo can fit in the case.

It should work. Someone else who has used it might be able to tell you more.

My case says Motherboard Compatibility: ATX (12" x 10.5")

but my motherboard says that it is 12.0" x 9.6"

Would that still work in my case?

Also don't know what motherboard to get.

Video card

get at least a 9800 pro (or xt not sure) 256mb because i believe they have anti alias, plus games like half-life two and doom 3 are coming and and peopel are gonna be using their graphic/physic engines for the games to come and 9600 pro 256 mb cant handle it at optimal performance i have one...... I mean it runs them all right, but why not for a $100 more get a x700 pro pci express 256mb
PHP:

Plus i heard when they made the 256mb for the 9600 it kinda mest it up a little performance wise, thats just what i think.
