Hello dear Hivers.
I am thinking of rather upgrading my quite old system.
I was thinking of asking some questions here first concerning upgrading.
So, I have old (asap) motherboard: Gigabyte G31M-ES2L
It has 2 slots for DDR2 RAM.
I was wondering, will this motherboard support relatively new Graphic Cards and processor (something like duo core or quad core, I'm not really that good about hardware), and I could just add 2x2 DDR2 Ram for a total of 4gb which is enough, I suppose (I do use lots of programs at once like WE, Skype, Browser and few of adobe's programs and sometimes audacity). Well I do not use that many at once, but 2 or 3 yes.
So, what do you suggest? Should I just buy new motherboard first and then move to better components or this motherboard will do?
