My mother gave me her old computer and I would like to make it a faster more up to date computer. I will just be scrapping the tower primarily and looking to upgrade the interior, however I can't seem to find a motherboard to fit into the old tower. The current specs are as follows:
Case:
Cisnet
Mini ITX Form
Production year 2004
Motherboard:
Biostar K8VGA-M - Socket 754
3 x PCI
1 x AGP 8x
2 x DIMM
Processor:
AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3000, 2.0 GHz
Video Card:
NVIDIA GeForce FX 5500
As it stands the case information is all I can find, however the motherboard maxes out the casings thresholds. I understand that I am working in the 'reverse order' on building my PC, but sentimental right lol.
I have found a processor that I would like to put in it, but it is an AM3+, and am uncertain if there is even a motherboard (I certain can't find one) that would fit the tower and still allow me those PCI slots. I would appreciate advise where it maybe available.
