Well, I've been looking around for good AGP cards for a good price, and I've found some stuff, but it was nothing near what I originally wanted. However, most of the PCIE cards I found were cheaper while still being better. I found out that I could buy a new PCIE compatible motherboard, buy a better graphics card, and spend about the same amount.
I've been looking around at some AMD motherboards, and I've seen a wide price range. What would be the disadvantages of buying a cheap one, other than a smaller number of slots? And I would also appreciate if someone would tell me about any compatibility issues that could arise with a new motherboard.
EDIT: I also have a question about Newegg. There's a mother board that has a low price and it says open box, but when I click on it to get a more detailed product description, the price goes up to what I assume the price would be if it wasn't open box. This doesn't happen with another open box item I tried. Is it a typo? The Prob
Also, any of you have any recommendations? Price, AMD 64 compatibility, and PCIE are what I care about most.
