Hi, I am new to this forum and to the world of computer building.
I recently wanted to buy a new videocard as my old one is spoilt. I wanted to buy Geforce of any of series 8 (8500, 8600 etc.). However, there was someone who told me that you need at least a ddr2 ram type to be able to use these videocards. Is this true? And is there any things to consider when buying a videocard? Like the processor speed all these... I am currently using: K8 Neo 4 Motherboard MSI AMD Athlon 64 3200+ DDR 1gb ram Geforce 7300GS 512mb Thanks for any help in advance |

No you don't need ddr2!
What is your budget?

If we're talking the MSI K8N Neo 4 Platinum, you can stick anything in that PCI-E slot you want.
However, I recommend you read my stickied hardware guide or at least post your budget and what you do with the computer for further advice.
