| 374233 | 2005-07-22 04:29:00 | I'm toying with the idea of getting a 939 M/B. I notice that they all seem to come with an IDE-E slot and no mention of an AGP slot. Does this mean that I would have to buy a new graphics card? I've just bought a Radeon 9800 pro. |

| 374234 | 2005-07-22 04:39:00 | I think you mean PCI-E and yeah you would need to get a new video card or find a mobo with an AGP slot instead. :) | Overdrive_5000 (4950) | ||

| 374236 | 2005-07-22 04:47:00 | The boards that suport AGP and 939-pin cpu's only have the Nforce3 chipset, which you already have, so by switching to such a board you would gain nothing apart from a lighter wallet. While I can understand the driving need to upgrade as soon as the glow has worn off your most recent purchase (actually,its beyond me) I suggest you wait and see whats around the corner....(dual core cpu's being whats around the corner) |

And my computer is getting old. Had it like this since January. |

| 374240 | 2005-07-22 04:57:00 | Hmm....I do wish you shopped through me, Your a goldmine... Anyhow, the next logical step up from your current cpu would have to be an AMD 64bit Athlon 3800 939 pin,and those are well over the thousand dollar mark...... |
