Hey,
I really need a new Mobo because I want a new graphic card, but I only have an AGP slot (No PCI-E).
Also, I assume ill need a new PSU and case, right?
I want to keep the price down as much as possible so I have more money to put towards the graphics card.
Current Specs:
AMD Athlon X2 4600+ 939 Socket
2GB DDR2 Dual Channel RAM -- I could still use this in the new mobo, right?
Asus ABV-MQ Mobo
Some crappy AGP gfx card
2x 320GB SATA HD -- I can still use this in the new mobo
300W PSU
As 939 is outdated I assume ill be moving to AM2 or 775 (So this would mean a new AMD or Intel processor as well).
I am kinda pissed off that I have to buy all this stuff just to get a new graphics card...
Could someone recommend me a list of stuff ill need to buy to get this shiny new PCI-E Mobo and still have a working computer?
Thanks,
Tom
