A friend of mine is going to give me a X700 vid card when he upgrades to the X850. Problem is, is that the X700 is a PCI-E card and my current mobo doesn't support it. Which means that I would have to buy another new mobo (I just got this one :dead: ). I am also concerned about my processor as it is a Socket A and I havent seen any mobo that support socket A and PCI-E. Can anyone shed some light on this for me?
 
So far as I know this does not happen - you gonna have to choose 939 or 754 I think for PCI-E.... there is a thread hanging around on the subject for 939 (my preference) here so have a read and take your pick.....

Or maybe someone else knows other options for PCI-E? I'm prepared to be enlightened, as ever! ;)

[EDIT] a DOH! moment here - that link is for 939 and AGP! thought I would leave it in to give people a laugh at what I can be like in the mornings! hehe [/EDIT]

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
