What is a good motherboard for linux that supports DDR2 800 ram and the AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800 cpu and has a PCIx16 slot? I amm trying to stay below $180 and have spent tens of hours looking for one. Can someone help?
Well, a gaming pc is for playing games and watching videos while a workstation pc has different hardware for modeling 3D graphic and editing video. Workstations use server motherboards and cpus and graphics cards like the FireGL and Quadro FX chips, which are about half as good at gaming as gaming cards at a half or a third of their prices. I am faced with the problem of wanting a computer that will do both, but more for 3D design.
What if I replaced the 8800GTS with a Quadro FX 1500? This is for a teenager's creativity not for a company designing the next big video game or movie.
Just for carrara 5? Its recomended requirements weren't that high. Would my system even be able to handle 3d modeling of the low res type like in games?
