im thinking of upgrading alot of the parts on my PC, namely the motherboard. im not sure of the one I have now, but it pretty much sucks, it only has 3 pci slots, no AGP, or PCI-E, and only has 2 Memory slots which if I recall, only support up to 1GB ram..., im looking to upgrade it, to something with either AGP, or more preferably, PCI-E so I can eventually get a PCI-E Video Card, stuff, since I have a Celeron 2.8Ghz, it would be good to find one that would use a celeron, if not, ill consider buying a different processor, does anyone have any recommendations on motherboards, and if so, anyone know a store in canada, I checked futureshop, but they only had 2 different ones they displayed on their site, one $80, the other $239, to cheap, or too expensive, I wouldnt mind spending between $150 - $200 for the motherboard, but im having a hard time finding any places that sell them, I still have to check some computer stores here, since they have no websites..... | |||

since you are in canada, it appears the only place that ships to canada is tigerdirect.
You should get a motherboard that has PCI-E and you should get rid of that celery, I mean celeron for a real processor like an Athlon 64. |

Trust me, ordering from Tiger Direct without a credit card is not a good idea. It's a major hassle. | |||
