i have a intel 845glly. the problem is that i wanted to upgrade my graphics card but i have a PCI slot so i have limited choices. i have the option of ati radeon 9250. but my hardware venderor was teling me that i should not buy a pci card and should go for a motherboard upgrade...but my motherboard is not compatible with nowadays' processors so i would have to go for an entire system overhaul...i wanted to know that is my venderor cheating me or i should go for a total upgrade...also please suggest the best config i can have below rs10k
yes dude u should go in for a mobo upgrade with a pci-express card slot. even if u had an agp slot it would have been fine.but pci wont do.
and in tht case be careful with the socket
if u wanna retain ur old proc
it should be pga478
otherwise u need to upgrade ur proc tooo
to lga775 socket
yeah...see my post
'but my motherboard is not compatible with nowadays' processors so i would have to go for an entire system overhaul'
that includes the processor also...the vendor told me that new motherboards aren't compatible with my processor(intel pentium IV 1.7Ghz)
by the way, thanx for your help...
i don't think that there is a mobo with PCI-e port supporting ur CPU.
man , for games , amd is the rock
dont even think of intel
