motherboard

[monkey_man]

hey, im stumped. i bought a dell dimension 3000 pc, don't ask why, and i want to remove the motherboard because it hasn't another port for a graphics card. the on board ones crap. i was hoping that i could simply buy a new motherboard and put the processor etc onto the new motherboard aswell as a new graphics card. what do you recommend?

hi monkeyman!

welcome to hexus...

prob with dell pcs is that the power supply is probably not ATX standard - which means that you will need a new psu, and possibly a new case to put it in... so it might be a bit expensive! lol

btw, you might want to ask a moderator to move this thread to the hardware forum - you will probably get more advice there.
