General Comments

I got a new computer for Christmas of 2002 and I have been using a lot in the past two and a half years. I only made one upgrade to this computer about a week after getting it. I'm only 15, so I don't have a budget yet. Well anyway, the upgrade I made was going from the onboard AGP GPU, to a faster more dedicated video card, and ATi Radeon 7000, that I got for $50 brand new. I installed the card, it worked perfectly the first time I installed it. Now I can play some games on this that rival my brother's more gaming geared computer. We both have the same CPU (AMD Athlon XP 1800+) and RAM (640MB) but his computer has an ASUS motherboard with an ATi Radeon 9200SE. These motherboards may not be an ASUS or some other high end motherboard manufacturer but these are a good board for people that are buying many computers at once or just need a computer to play light games on, and burn DVDs or CDs. I have never once had a overheating problem, a broken part or anything like that - not to mention we have four computers like this in my house, each costing a total of about 750 with moniter, keyboard and mouse. And keep in mind these computers are two and a half years old. It's a great motherboard that's for sure. You can say all you want but I'm happy and I'm probably never going to upgrade again. (I went from a Pentium 200MMX with 32mb or RAM, to an AMD Athlon XP 1800+ and what a difference!)

My regards, Brian.

    Hi Brian. I also have a PC chips motherboard, bought in 2002, and I also added RAM to it one time. It has 512RAM and still runs slowly. Any idea if the motherboard can take higher RAM? And if so, how much? I don't know the model or serial number on it.

    Thanks,
    Rich
