newsposter Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Most decent on-line stores, let you search on mobo features including memory type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAbReAkA Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 my advise:1. get a better video card (i have radeon 9600 and it's pretty sucky nowadays.. 9600SE is even suckier)2. u can get more ram.. vista itself needs around 550-600.. if u wanna take advantage of superfetch and resource-hogging apps or games u'll need at least 1.5gb..

kartel Posted November 9, 2006 Author Share Posted November 9, 2006 (edited) Ya I think im limited to 1.5g on this board.I'm trying to decide if I should go am2, 939 or what........i'd like to keep my ram and get another set of what i got.I do need a better videocard although this one has done not bad and is way better than 440 or the 5200 i had.I like the 850XT.........but then pciX is getting pretty good fillrates now.
