[sxc_ant]

i'm wantin to upgrade my computer (mobo+cpu)
the one ive got at the moment only can go upto 2200+ with the bios flashed!
So i want to buy a mobo that will let me put in a 2200+but have capabilties of upgrading to 3200+. and i do not want any integrtaed hardware (sound,lan etc) but plenty of PCI slots.
Hope ya can help it wold be very helpfull

so you want to get a new mobo, keep the old cpu, and o/c it to 3200?

[kaiweiler]

[sxc_ant]

No i want a cpu aswell

i like the asus a7n8x motherboard. It has the onboard stuff which i know you dont want but it has an agp and 5 pci slots which i think is the most you can get so...

or you could look at the gigabyte motherboards which i think are a lot cheaper but same quality and good performers also.

Asus A7N8X Here $88.

AMD 2500XP Here $90.

I know you said you didn't want Lan or sound or anything, but I dont know any good motherboards that DON'T include that really, so I just listed the one I have which is very well recommended by this forum

AMD is the super cheap power truck way to go...and by the end of the building process, if you stick it through, you will have a couple of skills

Negative.

The reason why I love my mobo is this:
Even though it currently runs/supports a 1800+ (and can run anything below it), it supports even a 3000+.

Oh by the way, my mobo has 6 pci expansion slots, and THAT is the most you can get right now

5 is the most ive seen personally so i assumed that was all a motherboard could have because of case size problems or something like that.

edit: what mobo do u have?
