Hi, my brother is looking at upgrading his computer and i want to start him out with a new mb ram and vid card. can only spend 200 on this, another post had all this for 230, but i was to slow. Need to be a name brand mb, would prefer abit, msi gigbyte or epox. ram doesnt have to be anything special. just ddr2100 that can do cas 2. 8500 really dosent matter, would like the gigbyte or ati. let me know if im way to low on this stuff, thats the money i have, and im going off that other thread. i only have 1 ref, but if you have paypal and have good refs i can pay you the night of the deal. btw, if you happen to have an xp processor cheap i mite be willing to by that for my computer. thanks for your time, you can pm me or email me at: dlhoffman@frontiernet.net
