Hmm im just wondering if there is a motherboard that Fits

AMD Athlon 4200+ Dual core
DDR400 Ram
Geforce 6200 ( I KNOW hehe)

But allso can fit

AMD Athlong 6000+ Dual core or higher
DDR2 Top End Ram
8800GTX

Basically i have the top 3.....but in a couple of months i want to upgrade...to the bottom 3.....But i want the motherboard to start off with....

Thanks :)
 
think u will be pushed there, 2 diff sockets for the CPU & 2 diiferent kind of ram, i know
some boards support ddr1 & ddr2, but not 2 boards that can do diff sockets on cpu, so probs no m8.
 
I think you will struggle with a board that has both DDR and DDR2 memory and if you did find any board that has that somehow I doubt it will be a top performing board.

So I would start by buying the mobo and RAM at the same time, and then get the new CPU and gfx card when you are ready as long as its PCi-e gfx and the same socket CPU you should be fine.
 
oh is 6000+ dual different socket, i didnt know that, thats probably why no ones answering hehe.

and yeh the motherboard and ram at same time i can do that.....but as i say i have 4200+ dual now 939 socket......so what would be some of the best CPU's i could have on a top 939 socket...
This would be for gaming

I went down the ASRock 4CoreDual VSTA route for an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU - it accomodates DDR and DDR2 RAM and also AGP and PCI-E graphics cards!! (lets you upgrade at your own pace!)

You can pick up a relatively cheap C2D now and they are great for gaming!

Mine is for sale if you want it!! ;) http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=17797806

ps. you should know tho that the PCI-E slot is only x4, not the standard x16 (not that I've noticed much difference)
 
havnt got access to there yet ! GAAAH, when do i ? is it 250 posts

Not sure?!? It might be 500 posts now I think about it.

Basically its this mobo: http://www.asrock.com/mb/overview.asp?Model=4CoreDual-VSTA&s=n

Great upgrade board but its socket 775 so you'd have to swap to an intel chip straight away. I am wanting £30 for the mobo inc p&p but if you wanted a bundle I could work out for the mobo, my E4300 CPU and coolermaster cooler??

ps. I assume your gfx card is AGP??
 
500 !!!!! NO WAY haha since i started here all i wanted to do was get into the market thing no way haha, i allways thought it was 250... :( God daym ..... im not sure if my card is agp actually... i just know its a 6200 turbocache.....have you msn ?
 
Yeah, your graphics card is AGP, just had a look.

My e-mail is in my trust if you want to chat directly....
