    ive been seriously thinkin about upgrading from my lovely 166mmx to something a wee bit bigger. maybe a p11 400 or something simliar. however, whilst looking at the dell site, i see that there new range comes with a dvd card and an 8mg ati card.
    what i want to know is that if already have a couple of cards...... can i still use them or juxt chuck em away? i mean im sure i can still stick me voodoo card in, but how exactly would that go around the dvd card? or would they all plug intogether like a happy family? and does anyone know where you can get a high spec, low cost puter on credit?
    whitewash

    so if anyone want a crackin p166mmx at a real slick price <IMG SRC="http://lacerta.ucg.ie/boards/smile.gif&quot; WIDTH=15 HEIGHT=15 BORDER=0 ALT=":)">

    I'll give you £20 for scrap. It'll go nicely with all the other redundant computer crap in my room.

    On the topic of olde hardware, anyone looking for a 486/33sx cpu?? Or a 486/66dx for no extra cost? And an AMD k6 166??

    Hummm, I didn't think so. Mind you, Doom really flies on them....

    ...I'll get my coat...

    GL Doom? Haven't heard, but that would be a laugh. Actually, that would be kinda scary.

    A dvd card has nothing to do with gfx,it is a card that allows u to connect a dvd drive to ur pc if u don't have a spare eide slot(the place where u connect ur cdrom and hds).If u have 2 hds connected or a sh*t mother board then u might need a dvd card but check before u buy(and let me know first as i get them real cheap).

    I looked around for the mem u wanted and got no joy(to outdated technology) but did c some in the buy and sell for 50 quid.

    PS WhiteWashMan
    Ur a muppet.

    PS Kegser
    Ur a sh*tehawk.
