Well, Moving to arizona, and Im dis-assembling everything as it is so why not remove my faulty motherboard and break it?

(the issue was a broken PCIe x16 port making SLI impossible and costing me 100$   had to re-sell my 7800)



Okay, not too sure about compatibility but currently im using an AMD Dual Core 4200+    and a BFG Tech nvidia GeForce 7800 OC with DDR2 RAM

any other details I can get

~~~~

What Im looking for is a motherboard with pref more than 2 PCI ports

and 2 PCI-Ex 16 ports

and 4 RAM slots (pref apart from eachother like not all apart but enough that I can put some cooling on them, yes Im a mod whore lol)

AMD compatable (Pref AMD/Intel compatable)

HAS TO HAVE SATA SLOTS



and DEFINATELY I WANT THE CHIPSET SO THAT IT WOULDNT BE UNDER MY 7800 or 8800 BECAUSE THATS WHATS HAPPENING NOW AND THE CARD BARELY GETS IN THE PINS

the preferences will be numbered in importance

1. More than Two PCI ports

2. 2 PCI x 16 ports

3. AMD/Intel Compatable

4. Chipset NOT under the path of the PCI/ PCI-E x 16 card

5. Spaced out ram slots (either 2 and 2 or 1x1x1x1)

I know Im being awfully specific but please help me if you can, Im also looking too, not just slacking. But im not sure about the whole compatability issue

any help worth karma will be karmaed

The reason Im being specific is that I really do not want to upgrade anything but the motherboard and the 8800 which is inevitable.   And I will upgrade the processor if someone can convince me to besides saying something like "Its so fast and it kicks ass"

THANKS ALL WHO HELP !

heh, didnt think so, just thought I saw that somewhere... probably someone misinformed like me or just a quick read of some other acronym.



That K9N SLI Platinum is really getting there, but lets see if we cant get something even better, and Im pretty much in the range for any price, better to have something i can build on for an extra 80 or so you know what i mean

anything pre-setup for liquid cooling options? Ive seen that on a 8800, maybe that would just make the inevitable easier...

Since you said you're in the range for anything:

Liquid cooling would come with a case. You could get that for fairly managable prices (aka $300 or so if you want it pre-installed).
