Re: Help with PCmaking
 

been a while since been on here, but as your talking about building pc's on this thread thought i'd add a question myself. my motherboard is "FUJITSU SIEMENS D2190-A S26361-D2190" been told it's a bit weird or summat! anyway question is could i buy another motherboard with a PCI-e express slot bang my processor in it and slot it back in it's casing???

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

bit like reviving old topics here eh Smiffer..... what kinda processor has your pc got, cant find much details about that mobo.

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

Motherboard:
CPU Type Intel Pentium 4 524, 3066 MHz (23 x 133)
Motherboard Name FUJITSU SIEMENS D2190-A
Motherboard Chipset Intel Grantsdale-G i915GL
System Memory [ TRIAL VERSION ]
BIOS Type Phoenix (03/17/05)
Communication Port Communications Port (COM1)

Thats from an Everest report not highly educated in pc stuff. Got an 128mb nivida card in a PCI slot. But been told thats about as good as you can get without having an AGP or PCI-e slot.

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

you got a Socket 775 processor so your in good hands there... you can use any board that you want really :) but then seeing the board that you got I guess you got a tiny tiny pc?

if so you can try this board: http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/117611

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

thats a skt 775 board isnt it?
So the answer is yes if it will fit in the case. If not buy a case

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

Zing, the pc he got is 1 of the smaller units of Siemens if I'm correct on this, so the micro atx board that I gave should be correct.

but then again if not I stand corrected :P

Smiffer if you could gimme the model number of the unit then I'll be 100% sure which mobo you could go for.

1 thing you deffo have to remember that if it is micro atx, then the only cards you can get are "LOW PROFILE" cards.

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

ok model number?? will that show up on everest or will i get it from else where?? the "micro atx" means diddly squat to me i'm afraid!!!

nothing to do with this conversation, but zinglebarb how come you got a clan on spearhead but not breakthrough??? is spearhead better??? i play breakthrough mainly

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

Smiffer, model number of the unit is normally at the front bottom of the base unit http://www.fujitsu-siemens.com/Resou...2028937308.jpg it says at the front Scaleo P

otherwise what is the size of the unit

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

but it in a cheap case you can get decent boxes for 20 quid use the existing psu and fanny is your mothers sister

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

yeah says scaleo p

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

There are breakthrough clans its just a lot of the leagues play spearhead and have done for longer. Breakthrough only really brings a couple of different maps and the Liberation game type

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

and how you know that fanny was my mothers sister???? think you;ve been doing this too long your getting pyshic

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

lol lol

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

so as its scaleo P i could swap mother board for one that has a PCI-e slot or would AGP be better does it make any difference??? would anyone else bother doing this??? just that games like battllefield 2 don't work too well and i'm guessing this is the kinda thing i've gotta do?? correct or utterly wrong??
