[SOLVED] trying to find a motherboard that works with all this
I odn't know much about computers, so if I sound dumb, please bear with me:
I currently have a computer that hasn't had anything upgraded since 2002, with the exception of the video card, which is now a Sapphire Radeon HD 3650 (AGP), and the power supply, which is 650w I want to get a new processor, motherboard, and RAM So basically, i'm looking for a motherboard that has both PCI-E and AGP slots (I plan on getting a new Video card later on), a maximum RAM capacity of 4gb DDR2, and that will be LGA 775 pin socket, also if it supports IDE and SATA that would be great, but i'd be willing to buy a new HDD if necessary the new parts I have in mind are: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819115206 and http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820159015 but I can't seem to find a motherboard that fits all these reqs Does such a motherboard exist? or should I just abandon my new video card and get a PCI-E one? I can currently spend about $400 on these parts, but i'd prefer if it were below $300 I live in the USA and I plan on using this for gaming, about Street Fighter IV quality of games please help

Re: [SOLVED] trying to find a motherboard that works with all this
You could sell the old card on ebay or craigslist. If you say it's "lightly used" you should be able to sell it for ~$40 or so.
