Hi,

I have a DX2/50 at the moment, but I want a new motherboard and DX2/80 CPU.
Thing is, I don't really know that much about PC hardware and stuff, and
was hoping someone could help me out.
I want to sell my M/B and CPU with built in 4 meg and built in Graphics
card and just buy some new memory, a new graphics card and a new M/B and
CPU. Will this work? Will I need anything else, or can I just do a straight
swap? Will the motherboard I buy have everything I need apart from the CPU,
Graphics card and memory which I will buy? Do I need a co-processor and
leads to attach my hard drive and stuff or will they come with the M/B? I
could really do with some help here.. could someone be kind enough to post
what I need to know here or, preferably, email me about it because I don't
have a very complete newsfeed?
Thanks alot for any help you may be able to give me !

Eddy
