    One last AGP upgrade?

    oh and your Antec TruePower 480W will run any of this fine. Do not worry about replacing your PSU, you could run 3 x400GB 2 Opticals / SLI and an AMD64 fine with that.

    One last AGP upgrade?

    To be honest for that sort of cash, you would get much better performance from buying a new CPU / motherboard and a cheap graphics card using PCIe. I suggest: AMD 64 3000+ CPU Cheap PCIe motherboard & a X700 or X600 ATI graphics card.

    help buying new graphics card

    Personally, what i think your looking for is a graphics card that is to meet your sons requirements at minimum as his ATI 7000 isn't cutting the job, an Nvidia 6200 or an ATI 9250 isn't going to make that much difference, they are better cards, but not much performance for your money over the...

    Gigabyte GA-K8U versus MSI K8N Neo

    With out a doubt, stick with the MSI K8N Neo. A much better board than the Gigabyte. Gigabyte are of good build quality, but they don't provide the same performance for value as almost any other brand. Stay with the K8N Neo, take the board back and buy your girlfriend something nice like a...

    It is a fantastic board, no doubt one of the best boards out at the moment, it is pricey, the reason for this is that DFI's current Nforce 4 Product line is incredibly stable and are fantastic overclockers. So if your friend is looking for great stability in the overclocking world and is...

    Compiling kernel modules? wtf

    A Kernel Module is nothing essentially special or unique, all it is, is a modification to the Kernel to load (for example) a function such as a filesystem or a device driver. Hence this is what you need.. What i would recommend is Ndis Wrapper, this was designed essentially for linux systems...
