Re: Help with PCmaking
 

your machine is a scaleo p. okies :) this board should do the trick then http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/98335 .

and at least you dont have to worry about low profile graph cards which are a pita to find.

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

ok and the other motherboard that docdutch pointed out you would be able to have a PCI-e or AGP card connected??

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

on a little side note I built a table top arcade game system today using an old pc and an adapter that turns the joystick and buttons to usb.Ill post pictures tomorrow its still in bits. Its going to run MAME in 2 player mode with 1000's of games

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

doesn't say on there that it has PCI-e ports or AGP i'm just probably being annoying now i know. They should make it harder for simple people like me to get in these things and ask loads of idiot questions

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

only pci-express Smiffer. cheaper nowadays then AGP.

go on Zing recommend him some nice graph cards you know you want to ;)

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

thats an atx board not a matx are you sure that would fit? you could buy the asrock twin board and have both agp and pci-e for 40 quid if that will fit

X1800xt for about 150 quid x1900xt about 220<<< both pci e

Re: Help with PCmaking
 

speccies of the pc are: 373mm high x 200 wide x 435 mm depth so the board should fit afaik.
