    Hey,

    Im buying new parts for an upgrade and 2 things just hit me:

    Firstly When i plug the hardrive into the new motherboard will it still have all of my files?? If i do not format or reinstall the os that is.

    Also which one of theese is better

    http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/108605/product_info

    http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/107033

    Really confused now!

    Only diff i can see if that the cheaper one has Dual 500Mhz
    And the expensive one 1Ghz non dual so what ones better does that mean the cheaper ones better??

    Cheers lecsiy

    I couldn't connect with the links. But yes, you will be able to put the old hard drive in and it should work.

    It's a stable card that takes a lot of load off of the computer overall. I tried overclocking mine. It did fairly well. But I returned to default settings, and can't think of a better card. I do a lot of graphics and with a 19" lcd, not a murmer out of it. If it gives up the ghost, well, that happens too. Good luck.
