QUOTE(kalakatu @ Nov 13 2007, 07:36 PM) why not? ram supported by motherboard and ram that comes with graphic card are TOTALLY different things at all if u apply theory like this, means we need to use the DDR4 compatible motherboard so that we can use the ATi graphic card that comes with DDR4 ram so its like this--> since ur mobo supports PCIE 16x, u better grab urself a 7300GT or 7600GS, depends on their price or u can increase ur budget summore to get urself a 8500GT, any brand would do  so you mean i can buy ANY pcie GC...thx kalakatu

QUOTE(alwizbthere @ Nov 14 2007, 10:14 AM) yeah, mobo supported has no relation with gc rams so buy something u need and can afford but might want to consider if ur others specs wil bottleneck the card u get or not like for example getting 8800ultra for a p4 pc will be a waste of money, since the processor can't keep up with the gc power im planing to buy ASUS GF 8500GT.My mobo is biostar K8T890.My processor is AMD Athlon 64 Processor3000+ and i have 1g ram.Does my processor can keep up with that GC?
