Blinker Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 (edited) I recently got this computer from my dad for gradutation http://www.compusa.com/products/product_in...1137&pfp=BROWSE and I was planning on gettting a new mobo and graphics card, but it does have an agp slot, do you think I should just get a new mobo? i was planning on getting this http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc....-131-468&depa=1 and maybe a ATI Radeon 9600xt or maybe a Radeon9800 http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc....-102-286&depa=1 or http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc....-102-331&depa=1 would I have any problems with the new update to my system? and what should i be expecting when putting in a new mobo and graphics card. thanks Edited June 1, 2004 by Blinker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkApUrViS Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 well first of all i would recommend a new case after that get the mother borad the a7n8x-x and what processors are you getting? um if the money doesnt matter to go with ati 9800 or wait til the new graphics card come out and get that one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newport Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 Well thats kind of a waste to take something your dad put a lot of money into and replace everything in it.... Make it a Folder or just have it set up as an everyday web surfer or something. Dont just rebuild the whole thing after he gave it to you.

Blinker Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 Well as a matter of fact he suggested that I put new hardware in it, and put some money into it. All I have to do is pay for the new stuff so I decided. and its not like im just wasting the money, im still going to have the hp a520n up and running.

dangerousfigure Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 you know i think it would be a waste to dismantle this computer why not just add a new video card if it has an agp slot ? thats about all it needs to be rocking , further more why do you want all this new stuff? you arent going to get very much out of the cpu and why oc it its kickass by its self just needs video i would say just add video and u got it made Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
