I'm currently running the follwing.....
Athlon 850 T-Bird
512mb pc-100 ram
Xtasy Geforce 4 MX 400 64mb
Diamondmax 40gb (failry new)
Sounblaster 16 PCI (old...i know...been good to me though).
Running win98SE
and some other stuff, that should work fine with....
Asus A7N8X-Deluxe
512mb 3200 ram (considering Crucial), going with a single stick, because I plan on adding another 512mb when I finally get XP.
Athlon XP 3000+ 400FSB
Ok, here's my ?s. I read that there are some problems running win98SE on the new nVidia chipset. I won't have the money for XP after I buy the board, cpu, and memory (child support is a drag). Can anyone confirm this?
And would I have any problems running my old gear with this board? Just curious. I plan on transferring a bunch of videos to a DVD burner I bought, and thought this would be a pretty cost effective upgrade.
But I'm seeing advertisements with the Barton core, Thoroughbred core, etc.....what's the difference? Will it make a difference with this board? Is there just a difference in the core after a certain model? (like between the 1700, and the 3000+?)
Any help would be appreciated. i've been skimming the forums for about an hour now, and see that you guys really know yer stuff.
