@warhammerakias

You could perhaps get a newer graphics card, this one is allready pretty old now, and you can get better ones for a small price. Also, do you mean 512MB of DDR3 ram? I didn't know there were such small modules then.. I'd get more than that. Get something like 4GB of ram at least.

[warhammerakias]

@CCReviews no i mean the gpu memory i got 2 gb ddr2 now but im gona take 8gb of ram with the new setup

[CCReviews]

@warhammerakias Ah yeah I see :P lol.

A new Graphics card you can always get. All you need to do is buy, install in your pc and install the drivers. So you could just use your old one for a while, see how you like it, and if you want something better, invest in a new one. :)

[warhammerakias]

@CCReviews yeah that im gona do il buy a good mobo and cpu and later i will buy a new graphic card ... thanks for the review and your answers :)

[CCReviews]

@breakethebeat

What are you planning on doing with it?

[breakethebeat]

@CCReviews just using it for gaming. Right now my motherboard is dead,so i was looking at the maximus extreme p67 b3 or the extreme-z Z68 ? :)

[CCReviews]

@breakethebeat

Well, it's up to you basicaly. It depends on what you're really wanting to do with it. Personaly I'd go for the P67.
