I have a PC I built to be a tailend 754 socket computer, that I'm probably just going to upgrade, rather than build an entire new one, if I can justify it... Off the MSI mobo in it, a K8N Neo Platinum, it can run IDE (or) SATA. Currently I run a 120GB Caviar SE IDE drive, but want to do a few things to upgrade sooner or later. Want some advice here.
Can I run a Raptor SATA drive 74GB alongside the Caviar IDE drive simultaneously? Or can it only read dual SATA or IDE at one time? Just curious.
Should I upgrade this PC, to a 256mb graphics card AGP8x slot, 7800GS or 7600, whichever it is. Upgrade from 1GB -> 2GB DDR RAM, and all that good stuff? Or would it be better off to just sell that PC or part it out and start a new build on the new AM2 stuff or going out 939 stuff.
I'm interested in the new water cooling stuff also, and would like to get into that as well, but am worried of it's dangerous possiblilty of leaking/breaking etc. under stress heh. I dunno.
What you guys think? Thanks!
