It could matter as older mobo's, some anyway, required either an Nvidia or ATI card.

Besides, stick with Nvidia for DX9 gaming, better bang for your buck.......and lower noise levels........and lower temps.......and less power requirements........

Budget?

Budget is up to £150 but i was hoping to get a graphics card that was reduced to that from alot more.

I cant get the details on the motherboard because i formated my pc with a retail windows xp because my backup dvd is unable to read so i downloaded a retail version of xp same edition home. Well i thought i could just use my old cd key which is the sticker on my pc, but no it wont accept it says invalid key so im stuck for now trying to work it out, when i do ill get the details of the motherboard!

Found out why even know the OS i downloaded is the same as my own original wont work with my cdkey, its because mines a OEM!! what ever that means, obviously i need to download a XP SP2 RETAIL OEM version. Yes ???
