Yeah. Considering I never asked for a new computer, I am completely grateful to him. Even if I have to work it off.

You misinterpretted it. I was assuming that it was an older, needs work constantly kind of Saturn. I was wrong, it turned out to be 2004 and in great condition. I AM thankful for be able to use the car for about a month. However, it was taken away due to my grades. He was going to take it away anyway, because my grandma's car crapped out and she needed it more than I did.


On topic: Is the DFI Infinity Ultra better than most others (besides Ultra-D) - or is there a better mobo for under $100?

Only Sapphire GTO2's can unlock to X850s. And you have to hack bios, and I'm pretty sure it doesn't work anymore on the newer ones.

Do you really want to take the chance?

How fuckin hard is your highschool? I coasted my senior year, did my homework before class, and got a 3.8 GPA.

Im upgrading the components in my computer and need to know what I should get, what I should be looking for.

Right now:

K7VTA3 Motherboard SiS or some shit. No PCI-E. AGP
Chaintech 6600 AGP vid card (stutters even with a reliable power supply, not all the time but it happens - have to reboot system when it does. . .this occured even WITH a 500W powersupply in there with all the +12V bullshit - gonna sell it to some asshole online)
AMD 2100+ or so CPU.
1GIG PC3200 DDR200 (is that right. . .fuck if I know what the two numbers mean) ram.

So - preferably I would like a MOTHERBOARD that supports the ram I have so that I dont need to buy 2gig of PC7800 DDR1MILLION ram and can just get another DDR200. CPU - I would be cool with a 2800+ or so.

What should I be looking for?

As for what I would like:

Motherboard - should be able to fit in an ATX tower. Not looking to upgrade case.

CPU - no fucking clue.

Both above should last be able to last me for awhile, to accomodate future Vid Cards should the need arise.

Video Card - Anything that can run shit at 12x10 without having to jack shit down to LOW.

Mobo - Get an nForce 4 Ultra

Motherboard: simple! Get the latest Asus that supports PC3200 RAM.
CPU: These guys are on crack... unless you plan on doing CPU intensive tasks, I don't suggest anything higher than an AMD64 3700+ (socket 939, so make sure the Asus board supports them)
Video card: Ati X850 Pro should suffice. Powerful enough for most games, not too expensive either (I got mine in Canuckia for 300$, so it should be 250 or less for you)

Nope. Just regular shit. . .gaming, watching movies, maybe some ADOBE work - nothing that I need three half-pipes and Sli-Water-Cooling. . .o_0

How much different is the x800XT from the x850 - cause I can get an 800xt for 100 bucks less - refurbished but still warrantied.
