Hey all,
I have a 2 month old Hewlett Packard (Eugh, I know) computer with an ASUS Goldfish2 Socket T (LGA 775) Intel 915GV board. Since HP doesn't care about the gamer, they modified the 915G and scrapped it's PCI-Express slot, much to my dismay. As an avid gamer, I'm looking to reclaim my PCI-Express slot with a new MoBo. Any reccomendations are much appreciated. I've got a few in mind, let me know what you think:

My current specs:
Intel P4 630 CPU 3.00GHz (2 CPUs)
1 GB PC3200 DDR SDRAM
Integrated Intel Graphics (Agh)
Realtek Integrated Chip
ASUS Goldfish2 915GV
I know nothing about installing MoBos. Could I go to Best Buy, fork over 40 bucks, and have them do all the work and install all the drivers?
Thanks,
