Hello,

I would like to know if this motherboard will work with this
configuration list (stuff I am about to get) and old parts (e.g., TV
tuner PCI cards, SB Audigy 2 ZS, IDE drives [DVD-ROM and CD burner, and
2 HDDs] from my current primary/gaming computer setup (see
http://alpha.zimage.com/~ant/antfarm/about/computers.txt ). I am going
to replace the old Quantum 15 GB IDE HDD with a new Seagate 320 GB SATA
HDD.

Here are the new parts:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 (AM2) 3800+ CPU
Gigabyte GA-M55plus-S3G Motherboard
EVGA's NVIDIA GeForce PCIe 7900 GS (256 MB) Video Card
2 GB of RAM (Kingston/Micron/Corsair Value Select DDR2-667)
Seagate 320 GB SATA HDD (3 Gb/sec; 7200rpm)

Any known issues, problems, etc. that I might run into? Thank you in
advance. Smile

Hi, I have had my current system that runs this board for a few months now
and have had no motherboard related issues.

I currently run Athlon 3000+, 256Mb 7300GS, 1Gb (2x512Mb) Hyundai DDR2-533
with a SATA2 250Gb HD.

I have used this board in another system, running a Dual Core 4600+ with 2Gb
Corsair Value Select 667, and a gigabyte 512Mb 7600GS video card and had
great performace for the price.

This board also seems to overclock easily without any hassles, as i run my
Sempron 3000+ (1.6Ghz) at 1.95Ghz without raising voltage or dropping
multiplier.

Great all round board to upgrade to, from an old system.

Very easy to use.

Strutt
