  • Sideways grade to a A7V600-X ?

    My office mates gave me a NewEgg gift certificate worth $60

    I don't really have any need for an upgrade, but I thought I might get this board.

    I have a very lowend MB (AsRock/SIS chipset),
    run a XP2000 @ 2600 by simply upping the FSB from 133 to 166,
    and already have 1 gig of ram or I would up that.
    It's exactly $60 bucks

    I'm wondering if it would help me future proof a bit
    So, for example, my next HD could be SATA without buying a new controler.

    It would give me that I don't have:
    A lot more overclocking options
    Memory Interleave
    Gigabit network (with nothing to hook it to but 100mb)
    SATA (with no SATA devices)
    Possibly better sound (?)
    ASUS support and tools

    What do you all think?

    Or, how about this TV Tuner Card?

      Do you have to spend it right away? I'd hold on to it until something you really wanted came out.
      P.S. You've been Spanked!

        Or a Logitech MX1000? Once you've had a laser in your hand you can't go back!
