Hi guys, I recently got a GPU PCIE-v2.1 which is not compatible with my cruddy mobo with a PCI-E v1.0. I was wondering if I can upgrade my mobo using my current CPU. I do not have a big budget. Heres the full info on my PC.
and about the RAM, I'll buy DDR3 RAM if needed for a new mobo (if upgrade is possible).
