Heres the deal. I am building a new computer around some of my old hardware. I have a Sapphire X1950 Pro graphics card in which i want to build my compute around it.
What im trying to build:
- I need a computer that can run a video editing program to the best of its abilities. Also i want it to be able to run some higher end games as well. Possibly ones like Oblivion for example. I know how to assemble everything, i just dont know whats compatible to what im trying to build and my graphics card as well. Part names and types are something new to me.
Things I have/Can Use:
- I have a couple different power sources, just the regular ones that come with a standard computer, im not sure if those will be able to work with what i want to do or not.
- I have 2 GB of ram but possibly may upgrade or probably will have to
- Have a CD drive that is suffice
Things I need!
- Basically what im looking for is a motherboard that can support my Sapphire X1950 Pro card considering the fact that im building this computer around that graphics card.
- Also im wondering what type of processor will be compatible with this motherboard because i kind of want a higher end processor.
Conclusion
- So if anyone has any ideas on what i should do they are much appriciated! Im really lost and im on a work deadline to have this computer built!
