Evening all,
Firstly I'm new here, so hi to everyone
Okay, I have an XP2000 proccessor on a ECS K7S5A motherboard, its about a year old now. My question is what is the max cpu I can squeeze into this board? Because I believe its the XP2700, but I'm not willing to try without your expert advice. I have googled a few times on the subject, but no joy.
Also, I know this is not really the right forum, but right now I have a GF4 MX440, which tho everyone slags it off, is actually pretty handy in UT2003, GP4 and has good image quality. However, it is a little slow, so I'm looking to upgrade. I'm thinking (I'm a student in the UK) that a cheap second hand GF4 Ti4200 or 4800 would be good, or maybe after christmas I could stretch to a ATI 9600 Pro, but that's kinda the max budget for me. Also, with 256mb ddr ram installed, can i just buy a further 512, or does the two sockets have to have equall amounts?
Sorry, lots of questions!! Thanks in advance gents.
Chris
