how's novatech as a manufacturer? Want my graphics card from them: http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?NOV-86GT1. And just to check, I'm hopeful that this is the correct motherboard: http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.jsp?GIG-5CDS3R, although I was hoping for an nForce one. Could someone pick me a decent one please, as I really have no idea who makes good hardware etc. Needs to be: about £100, support DDR2 (and possibly 3), minimum 4GB ram and be socket 775 (Intel). Thankyou :D =============================== Farran Lee I'm only 15 :-P
