Change the memory from value memory to something else, I personally don't like it.

Also, if you can get a different vid card, at least a 5700 or better.

i dont think that socket 478 processors use ddr2. if the mobo has 184 pin ram slots, it takes ddr. ddr2 is 240 pin.

make sure the mobo accepts sata drives.

wow didnt even notice that.

see thats why i wanted you too check.

musta been all the pot in my younger wilder days

Thank you

and if your going DDR2 your probally going to have to get an LGA775 board and cpu.
