I built my first computer about a year ago and I didn't know the difference between PCI-E and AGP, so I bought an AGP motherboard. I have the Athlon 64 3000+ chip and a Nvidia 6600GT videocard (AGP of course)
Should I buy a new motherboard that has PCI-E? I know that AGP isn't really being supported much anymore and I want to be able to upgrade my videocard in the future for gaming.
Also, if I DO get a new motherboard, will I have to reformat my hard drives when I switch everything over? I'm running XP Professional.
