from what I have now. To psyco, Im just looking at my mobo,proc,ram. Im not lookin at any graphics cards. You dont think the 285 is enough? Also this mobo I have is not a good overclocker by any means so thats why you see the mild oc cause I cant get it...

a mobo/proc? What do you have now? Well right now all I have is some pre-built HP comp that really bites. Celeron 766mhz 192 sdram. I was thinking of maybe using the cd-rom and rw drives and just get a new mobo and processor. I already have the hard drive....

Buying a Mobo and proc. thx for checking out my other post, and i relized that getting a mobo compatible with socket 939 proc, is kinda pointless, so i just decided to get a new mobo and proc. heres what i want i have a limit of $250 PCI-E compatible...

Switching from Intel to AMD - Questions re: mobo/proc choice. Hi, I have finally got the money to switch from my old Intel/Asus setup to a more gaming oriented AMD 64 proc. After spending a couple of days looking around at performance charts, reviews and...

there's a way." Im looking through my mobo manual right now and it says it supports 370 processors. So i guess that means i dont need the socket converter? The mobo is a p3v4x. i thought that all slot versions ARE NOT compatible. so, the coppermine CPU cannot...

with my mobo and proc which has 780G chipset [b]I have a ECS BLACK SERIES A780GM-A mobo at my house which i guess i cant use supposedly can only support proc's up to 95W TPD i ordered a 9850 phenom x4 black edition wattage is at 125W[/b] i ordered...

be a bad thing, but then if you want to upgrade later you'll have to sell your mobo, then your proc cause you might as well, then sell your graphics card and then buy another. But that did sound like an awfully good deal for the 3700+ with the mobo as long...
