24435 2001-11-14 00:42:00 I recently bought a Graphics controller by mistaking an ISA slot for a AGP slot, so now i need to buy a new motherboard and CPU (might aswell upgrade my k6-2 400 =).

Does anyone know any good retailers?(web sites would be good)

Also if i get a new motherboard will i need a new power system?.....What else must i look out for?

24436 2001-11-14 01:19:00 i recently retired my k6-2 500 system and got a new atho system.

you can get super socket 7 boards easy enough, plenty second hand but dollars per performance you will be better off with better cpu such as duron/atho.

most likly you will need new motherboard,case,power supply,cpu, mouse(if the old one was a serial)and cards(a lot of new motherboards don't have isa slots)

i would sell off the old system complete and build a whole new one. even a duron system will seriously out perform a k6-2 system.

www.tastech.co.nz
www.ascent.co.nz
www.uptech.co.nz

Tastech has really good priced motherboards.

Good luck, JM
